Camera & video equipment repair

Updated 4 November 2026

A camera or video equipment repair in Malaysia costs from about RM 100 for a lens cleaning to around RM 500 for a camera body service, and the figure depends on the device, the fault and the model. The model and the cause of damage decide the final price. The quickest way to get current quotes is to describe your device and fault in a BlaBlaPrice request, where repairers reply with their own price and time.

Warranty and parts first

Before you agree to a repair, ask whether the work carries a warranty and for how long. Some official service centres offer a service warranty after repair, while independent shops set their own terms. Parts are a common blocker: some older models cannot be fixed because the parts are no longer available, so ask the repairer to check parts before the work starts. Ask also whether the quote includes labour and parts.

Humidity and the wet season

Malaysia is hot and humid all year, and November starts the wet season. Humidity makes lens fungus more likely, so lenses stored in bags or cupboards are at risk. Check your lenses for haze or spots now, and do not leave a damaged camera in a damp bag while you wait for a quote.

Drop-off, delivery and home visits

Most camera and lens repairs are done at the workshop, so you will need to drop the equipment off or post it. The search found several camera repair shops in Shah Alam and Kuala Lumpur, so compare them by location. Ask whether a home visit is possible before you assume it is. Quotes are given per job after an inspection, and some shops offer a free quotation before any work starts, so ask for one in writing.

What to write in your request

Name the device type and exact model, describe the fault and what caused it, such as a drop, water or age, and say whether you need parts replaced. Add the deadline, the warranty you expect, the city you can reach and your budget. A photo of the damage or the error screen helps repairers give a quote faster.

Start with the request field on the home page and describe your camera, lens or camcorder and the fault. The AI asks for the model and the cause of damage if they are missing, looks through repairers' websites and price lists in Malaysia, and shows the prices and businesses it found. Registered repairers receive the request and reply in the chat with their own price, time and warranty. Your contact details stay hidden until you choose who to share them with.
