I've had some issues with my vertical rangefinder alignment in the past days with my R3A. I searched across the forum and web and found lots of posts talking about how to do it, pictures and a couple of links to "best guides to do this"... but as usual in the internet, this kind of links outdate/expire and the photos were not for the R3A but for other models (and seems they're not the same, and screw positions are diferent)


So here I'm just leaving a photo of my R3A top plate (after removing the clip and the hot-shoe plate screws, that remember have a different lenght so keep this in mind when storing them...) and a big red arrow pointing to the screw that you have to turn in order to align vertically your rangenfinder (clockwise to get it down, do it in 1/8 turns in order to not mess it up)

Hope it helps!

Hi,
I'm having trouble taking off the hot shoe plate on my R3M. Do you mind sharing your instructions? Many thanks!
