Viewfinder Frame…

[jarane]

Hi,
I just got my Xpan yesterday.

As happy as I was, I started checking it out and noticed that when I switched from the 45mm to the 90mm, the viewfinder frame changed correctly, but when I put the 45mm back on, the frame remained small, as if the 90mm was still on.

Is there a specific button/setting, that I need to be aware of, in order for this framing to work correctly?

Thanks in advance,
E.C.

No there is no button or setting--I think the changing mechanism must be sticky. Old, congealed grease can cause this. It may need a CLA. But try putting it in a warm place, like sunlight, or in this weather, probably under a heat lamp (not too close!) for a few minutes and then try to get the cam to move with the lens removed. 45mm is the default position. If that doesn't work, you need to have a tech look at it.

Thanks Rob-F,
will try that (hope it works).

Thanks again,
