Philip,
            I had a Tokina SMZ 35-105 f/3.5-4.5 serviced at;

Tokina Repairs
2360 Mira Mar Avenue
Long Beach CA 90815

            There was some concern if parts were available to replace a broken
mechanics. I can't say they were out standing, but were reasonable to deal with,
no complaints.

Regards,
Larry
