hi,

Just a quick info for those who want to have their Hexar RF adjusted in Europe and where not able to find somebody to do it. I brought my newly aquired Hexar RF to Redl Camera Service in Vienna (Austria, Europe, etc.) because the rangefinder had a vertical alignement problem.

To cut it short: he disassembled the camera top, replaced something, adjusted it and cleaned it and I am VERY happy with the result.
The VF is now much clearer, the vertical alignement is perfect and not only my Hexanons, also my Rokkor focusses accurately.

I have an M-Hexanon 90/2.8 there for adjustment, too, that I can pick up tomorrow.

The service was not cheap, due to the need to remove the top plate and do some...stuff, but well worth it.

I have to point out that I am not in any way affiliated, I was just happy to find a local shop to fix whats otherwise a perfectly fine camera :)
 
I got my 90 back, CLA'd and adjusted. It feels buttery smooth now. If the focus is where it should be I can tell you when that roll of Portra is through :)
 
Scanned my first roll shot with the 90 after the adjustment and now it focusses perfectly fine. Especially so with a 1.25x magnifier :)
