Camera Craftsman - May/June 1968
The May/June 1968 issue of Camera Craftsman addresses critical topics for camera repair professionals. The main feature, "Parts vs. Repair Profits" (Part I) by Samuel L. Love, provides an in-depth examination of the persistent challenge of obtaining replacement parts for camera repair work. Love investigates why photographic equipment manufacturers cannot supply parts with the efficiency seen in the automotive industry, scrutinizing both genuine obstacles and misconceptions that plague the spare parts distribution system.
This issue features continued coverage of electronic shutters for automatic amateur cameras, Prontor innovations, and essential technical sections including Service Notes, Help Wanted, Graduates, and Technical Forum. The "repAIReade" column delivers practical guidance for technicians working in the field.
The cover highlights the National Camera Repair School's accreditation achievements through the National Home Study Council and the National Association of Trade and Technical Schools. Various specialized repair tools and accessories are showcased, including Kimwipe disposable lens cleaning cloths and Retina wrench tools. Significant coverage of the NCRS resident program accreditation and expanded facilities demonstrates the school's growing importance in professional camera repair training and education.
