In the US, the minimum charge to do anything on my em1m2 was $330. Perhaps you will face the same type of minimum. Of course, you still have an old camera after the repair that may not be worth much more than the minimum charge.

If possible, I'd explore getting a second unit used rather than doing some preventative repair on the one you have.

After all of these logical suggestions, it's becoming clear that it might be best just to roll with it until I can't. Have other great cameras but need to get this EM1 out of my system and if the cost is limited to acquisition used, best to stop there without giving too much money away.
