I know that the top plate must be removed, it's not like other Bessas where the adjustment screws can be reached thru holes in the hotshoe. But I have no further info.
Has someone done it successfully? Or is there a link to the service manual?
In Germany the official service center wrote me back that they don't support this model anymore, which sounds pretty much unacceptable to me, because they mention on their website that the high quality Voigtländer rangefinder cameras and lenses can be repaired.
