bartohomar Posted June 7, 2011 Share #1 Posted June 7, 2011 Advertisement (gone after registration) I'm thinking about buying a photographic lens and I've been looking at the website of Foto Prisma Srl in Bologna. I wonder if some member of this forum could give me pointers to this store because I found something that interests me but I have never bought there. Thanks for your information.

johnkunstadter Posted June 9, 2011 Share #2 Posted June 9, 2011 Barto, In three years' dealing with Foto Prisma I've found the owners to be honorable and knowledgeable. They and their shop are reminders of Italy in the 1950s and 1960s (L'Italia di una volta): dignified, courteous, and masters of their trade. I would caution you only that they accept that older lenses will have some haze. Since they do not send lenses out for cleaning before putting them up for sale, you are likely to find that a lens described as clean has some haze. I would highly recommend Foto Prisma. In addition, it's well worth visiting the store if you're ever in Bologna. The time to stop by is after 17:30, when up to five or six local photographers drop by - the discussions are lively and everyone is willing to share photo tips for Bologna and the surrounding region.

epand56 Posted June 10, 2011 Share #3 Posted June 10, 2011 I had to deal with Foto Prisma when sent to them my Tele Elmar 135/4 after I bought it (on eBay) since it was not focusing properly on my M8 in spite of being brand-new-looking. They did an excellent work on my lens that when back home was spot on. Very reliable and kind people. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
