Hello everybody,

I recently bought a QL17 Qiii off of ebay. It wasn't in the best condition, has fungus in the lenses. I noticed that the rangefinder was really off focus and tried to adjust it myself, however the horizontal adjustment screw would not budge and when I finally manage to turn it the horizontal adjustment wouldn't move on the viewfinder. Does anyone know how to fix this? Any advice on restoring and taking care of the camera would also be nice.

Thank you!
