Subject: [Leica] M2 viewfinder request
From: John Collier <jbcollier@home.com>

Yesterday I attached my 90mm to my M2 and when I looked through the
viewfinder, the rangefinder patch was not in the centre of the frame! It was
centred horizontally but higher vertically. My M4-2 has its rangefinder
patch in the centre. I have had the M2 15 years and have not noticed this
before but yesterday it leaped out at me as WRONG. Either I unknowingly
whacked it or I am particularly slow on the uptake. Would someone kindly
peer at their rangefinder patch with the 90mm or 135mm framelines selected
and let me know if it is centred or not? I am pretty sure it is awry but
would appreciate confirmation before sending it off for remedial surgery.

Cheers
