There will be a wheel on a lever just in front of you - - sticking out. (When the lens is on the camera, this wheel is pressed onto the lens' internal focusing ring or whatever it is called - to coulpe the focusing with the rangefinder mechanism). You can play with this wheel trying to adjust its position back and forth with a knife or whatever you can use - it is attached on a screw-type carrier. Use very small increments and every time check with a lens attached and set at infinity. Hope it will help. I am pretty sure this adjustment doesn't affect anything but the wheel position, so this shouldn't hurt your camera. __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
