I think the aperture scale is stuck on my new to me Contax RTS. Here is what i found on mir.com:
”The figures along the top edge of the finder frame denote the f-stops. The complete scale consists of 1.2, 1.4, 2, 2.8, 4, 5.6, 8, 11, 16, 22 and 32 settings. When the lens is mounted properly, the scale shifts to the right or left, correspondingly, to display the maximum aperture of the lens in use always on the extreme right. When the aperture ring of the lens is turned, the green pointer moves to display the preset aperture in green figure.”
In my camera the scale is shifted to the left slightly with wideopen starting at a dot right of f/1.4 and ending at a dot right of f/16. Is this a simple fix to get the scale to shift into the right position. It’s more of a visual annoyance to me than anything. The meter responds properly when I move the aperture ring on the lens.
