Rangefinder problem with R2A, fixed it myself but jumps out of alignment

[Xax]

Hi,

I've had a problem with my Bessa R2a, the rangefinder somehow jumped out of alignment, I've done my research, opened the hotshoe, turned those screws, everything worked fine, as soon as I close it up again, it's out of alignment again.

Would there be any fixing screw down there that I overlooked? I just can't get nail enamel in it and I don't want to glue it all up.

Any DIY suggestions?

thanks.

Is it vertically mis-aligned?

The nail enamel needs to be very little (on the end of a needle). You can use the same needle to take it off when you want to next time (it will come off as one piece if you are careful).

unfortunately it's both vertical and horizontal.

where would I have to place the nail polish? into the threads of the screws?

thanks so far!

Vertical and Horizontal? Blimey - I think you might want to get it to a repair shop.

I've been having similar issues with mine as well. It just doesn't stick. It's a little frustrating.
