Will post on Large Format Photography Forum if I don't get any answers here...but think since it's a RF problem I should use the RF forum!
I have a Super Graphic with the top-mount Graflex rangefinder. The RF is off vertically, but when it comes to calibration to actual focus, it's spot on, dead-nuts with my 135mm lens and appropriate cam.
Trouble being, when I swap the 135mm cam with the 90mm cam, It doesn't work. It doesn't match the Ground Glass at all, and when I rack the focus all the way back it only gets to 15ft on the distance scale, rather than the infinity it should be reaching.
I've installed, uninstalled, and reinstalled the cam, swapped it out multiple times. I'm sure it's in right. I'm also sure my 135mm cam works flawlessly. The cam I have for the 90 is the P4, which is supposedly according to Graflex.org the correct cam for this RF and lens. What could the problem possibly be? I'm perplexed.

Are you sure that your infinity stops for the 90mm lens are set properly?
