Konica Auto S3 rf adjustment

[ElusiveFigure]

Recently bought one and everything works on it and seems to be very accurate. Only thing off is the RF. The horizontal is off. The RF focuses to infinity at 15ft. I will probably use it for a while zone focusing and just taping over the RF window, but I'd like to fix it if it's easy. I've found places that say the screw to adjust the horizontal is hidden behind that screw under the viewfinder. Just wondering if that is the case, and if so what screwdriver I need. Thanks

Yes - the screw under the viewfinder window, inside the film chamber. You just need a standard screwdriver (straight notch) - not too big. Just go slow it does not take much movement of the screw to get it fixed. Check both infinity and 0.9 meters /3.5 feet using a tape measure or similar. Might need a little fiddeling to get it right, but no big deal.

Great, thanks a bunch. Sounds fairly simple and easy, especially considering I successfully took the top plate off twice (ended up screwing up the vertical alignment the first time). Just need to find a super small screwdriver now.
