I picked up an Arco 35 Automatic D w/f2.4 lens this weekend. It appears to be working fine with the exception of the vertical alignment. I did find some information on Camerpedia but I am inquiring if anyone out there has used this camera or any Arco camera? Also, who works on this type camera should I want to take it off the shelf for a CLA & vertical adjustment?

It's a camera I have never even heard of before. I did find this fascinating bit of info, a contraption called a View Arco that, amazingly, turned the 35mm rangefinder camera into a TLR w/ automatic parallax correction and a way to ck the actual DOF. Arco seems to have out Leicad Leica's strange Leicaflex adapters.
