Just got mine,
it is nice RF, soo nice, smaller than my RD1 and i think (and my friends said) it is quieter than RD1. 35mm frames is acceptable, I think it is bigger than my Hexar AF

the minus is :
- with my 35mm VC f1.4 (which focus perfectly on RD1), it pass infinity on HRF. I can try to calibrate the RF, it should be possible to match it.
- the speed display was kind of blurry, it is like double images (or more), I can't see the detail of it. when I move my eye to the most left area of eyepiece, then I can see it become more "readable"

anyone had an issue like me, specially on the blurry speed display, any idea how to fix it ?
thanks !!
 
during my mod of framelines (other thread) , I did try to add spacer on screws holding the speed display assy, it became worst.
I did remove the spacer as well, and it is as bad as before.

then I realize something. it is BLURRY when I try to focus my eye on the speed display. but when my eye is relaxing, watching closely the focus patch, then I turn my eye on the speed display quickly, it is sharp !!

Looks like this is "designed" on hexar to display the speed on a long distance (so focus of eye is not needed to change from the patch/object to close focus).

seeing this way, the framelines is getting sharper as well. I think my problem already been solved.

thanks (for no response)
