Hey guys,
I'm starting to think that my Nokton 50mm isn't quite calibrated to my R2's RF. It's fine stopped down obviously, but wide open or at f/2 it seems to focus behind what I have in focus in the viewfinder.
It is entirely possible that it is my fault and I'm just not dialed in on focusing this camera yet, but I'm curious what it would take to have both of my lenses adjusted to my camera's RF.
Any thoughts?

You don't need to have the lenses adjusted, you just need to have the rf calibrated which should be easy peasy for any competent camera tech. Such adjustment is to be expected periodically on any rf camera. There are diy instructions various places on the interwebs-- there are a series of set screws hidden under the flash hotshoe which adjust the rangefinder, but personally I'd far rather have someone else take responsibility because it's a somewhat fiddly adjustment. In addition removing the hotshoe without scratching things requires some care.
