A slide film sent away to be exposed will show if my speculating about the right measuring point is right:
Don, thank you for your encouraging email, I did in fact measure the wrong distance!
Measuring point in the camera body is the pressure plate rails, of course. That is also the explanation for the blurred picture on the ground glass which rests on the film rails.
And Glenn, you are right, those who give other measurement figures than 43.7mm are also measuring the wrong distance or don't know better.
Thanks to everybody who have contributed to ease the disheartening plight with my SRT, it feels good to have such competent companions, W.
