Hi I've buyed a nice Hapo 66E (similar to Balda Super Baldax) and I'm waiting to try it on the field, but I need first to recalibrate the rangefinder. I managed to recalibrate the rf thru the rear hole but the two images don't collimate vertically. I think I have to remove the top cover and this would also give me the opportunity to clean the viewfinder that is very yellowish, but I fear that the counter mechanism could be too complex for me to reassemble it correctly. Why, just winding the film is complicated enough!! Have some of you done this before? Any clue?

Contact Jurgen Kreckel (www.certo6.com) he may be able to give you a few pointers as he's refurbished many of these Hapo 66E cameras.
