mp rangefinder adjustment

[gillman34]

Are the adjustments the same as a M2/3? Vertical under the screw plug and horizontal adjusts with the arm eccentric?

Yes, the MP adjusts the same as the M2/M3/M4....etc

Thanks, I looked under the screw plug for the vert adjust and did'nt see a slot for the screwdriver blade.I'll look again.

The current MP requires the same special adjustment tool as the M4-P, M6 or M7 and is not like the user friendly design of Wetzlar cameras that took a small slotted screwdriver to make the adjustment. Sorry, but the MP's slotted screw cover just allows easier access instesd of removing the red logo.

Maybe Tom A can design a cheaper one.
How about it Tom?

Yes your right,not a simple screwdriver slot like my old m2.Looks like I have to spend the bucks to buy the correct tool.Oh well.
