Contax G finder problem angle of field

[hoeber-icon]

I've received my latest slides and now I found that from the right side of the picture something is missing and on the left side is too much, which means I can not make the right composition.
With open shutter and a piece of matted glass I see also not the same frame as I see in the finder. I have the problem with both the Sonnar 90 mm as with my Planar 35 mm. I used the Contax G1 already 7 years and never had this problem.
Does anyone know if it is repairable ?
Does anone els had this problem?

This sounds normal- perhaps- as the G2 doesn't give a 100% viewfinder image. I've been thinking of modifying my lens mounts to open up the view through the camera- the G2 has a continious zooming finder, so by filing aways an undetermined amount of the stop that adjusts the viewfinder I could theoretically make it 100%, or much closer. I've been watching on ebay for a real beater 45 or 35 to use for testing.

This sounds like the viewfinder shifted to one side, i.E. severe missalignment, but hwo should this happen?

maybe the penta prism in the viewfinder has moved or is lose !
