"These old cameras are like that", my foot.

So put the lens on another body ((Leica, Bessa, FSU, whatever) and put the body in a drawer, and get on Henry Scherer's wait list.

🙄 C'mon, there is no need of getting on that stupid "waiting list" just for an infinity rangefinder calibration job, which any average skilled person can perform within less than an hour !

Henry Scherer's waiting list is a joke. It's not like he is the only person doing quality work on Contaxes in the US, or is he? Seems hard to imagine (I mean, in Germany I know at least three). I think he's a bad case of hype.

At the rates he's charging, you could send your camera to Germany to a former official Zeiss Ikon service center and have it back almost three years earlier and for less money.
