Hi there,

I disassembled the (dirty) lens on my newly aquired oly RC - (thanks to the notes and posts of others here!) It's all back together now - but I notice that the (previously alligned) rangefinder is now mniscalibrated - by quite a bit. Is it just a case of recalibrating the rangefinder - or have I screwed something up reassembling the lens? Is it okay that the rangefinder went out of whack - or is this not supposed happen?

I was pretty darn careful about the disassembly and cleaning which is why this has taken me a bit by suprise. I thought I'd ask before just going in and resetting the rangefinder. Thanks for any feedback.

best,

David.

silly question, but you DID put the rod from the focus plate through the body hole to the rangefinder, didn't you?
