Mamiya 6 rangefinder adjustment

Rhodes · Dec 17, 2014

The rangefinder of my mamiya 6 is misalign vertically. I see this when looking at the horizon: ----____---- . Horizontally It is fine, but I want to correct the issue. The adjustment screws are: on large head at left and a small head one in a step, more close to the backside of the camera and at right.
Anyone can tell me which is the one that adjust vertically the rangefinder? Thank you

Just send it in to Precision Camera Works of Illinois. I wouldn't try to mess with it yourself.

+1. Bob does great work.

Sorry, live in Portugal and sending something oversees is expensive. Also I asked Ken Rockwell for advice in this matter and he put in contact with the person that fixes his cameras, from precision camera works! He said that a small adjustment can be made diy with a normal care.

Just be certain that it's Bob from PCW in Illinois, as there are multiple establishments in the United States by that name.
