Hello,

I purchased this camera as a parts camera to practice on, but it seems to work just fine. I think the seller didn't pay enough attention to see how it winds up. although, the focusing has an issue (or so I think, I haven't shot a roll yet). When looking through the view finder, you have a split image and you focus until the two images line up, right? Well, it works side to side, but as they line up, they are still stacked. The straight through view is on top of the view from the focus ring. I haven't worked on a rangefinder before, so I am assuming there is a mirror inside that allows you to see through the focus ring and I think maybe that is out of place.

Enlighten if you will please,
Thank You
Jody
