I recently had the eyes of my Elmarit-M cleaned by a local camera tech. In the process of doing this he has lost the focusing calibration of the eyes. The focussing patch of the rangefinder no longer aligns vertically and the horizontal overlap point corresponds with about 7m when the lens is set to infinity. He has had a second try at resetting the calibration but is doing so by trial and error rather than with any optical test equipment. It seemed as though he had done so correctly but all of a sudden the settings appear to have shifted and the whole setup is out once again (no knocks bumps on my part however). Does anyone know what is involved in re-setting the eyes correctly and can anyone recommend a competent repairer with some experience of what is required. All contributions gratefully received on this one. I'm in Canberra, Australia. Regards, Gary Brook - -- To unsubscribe, see http://mejac.palo-alto.ca.us/leica-users/unsub.html
