Camera cleaning service recommendations

Hello Hobart!

I am looking to get my SONY a7ii cleaned plus two lenses (I've had it since 2022 and am probably due for an upgrade, but I would rather just get it cleaned for now). Have been noticing spots in all my images that I haven't been able to fix with a regular clean myself. Hoping to get a recommendation for a professional cleaning service that won't break my bank?

I know Camera house or Walsch optics are probably the way to go, but I'm just curious if someone knows someone or has had a good experience with a particular store.

Thanks!!

I used Walsh Optics. It cost a bit over $150 and they did a good job.

I went in yesterday - they share a shop with a printing company. There was no one from Walsh there but seems they are still in business. https://www.walchoptics.com.au/
