Hello to everyone,
I have a problem with my mamiya C330. when the camera is set to its max close-up position, an indicator, that can be found on the focusing screen, doesn't point at number 3, but something between 2,5 and 3. I think, that it should precisely point at 3. Is there any possibility to adjust this to have it corrent.
P.S. parameters of lens are set to standard 80mm

please, help me :-)

I just checked mine and it's the same. I think the 3 is there for reference, to make it easier to estimate the exposure correction. By the way, if you reset the parallax dial for the 180mm lens, the indicator will not quite reach the 1.5 mark.

The blue dial on my C330s only goes from 180mm to 135mm - any ideas how to solve this?
