I recently bought a Zeiss Super Ikonta B (532-16). The rangefinder patch is misaligned vertically. Horizontally is fine. Should I fix this or should I just trust the horizontal alignment?
I don’t want to be engaged in complicated repairs, considering the age of this camera. Hopefully, it is possible to disregard this issue and enjoy the camera.
Does anybody have experience with this camera and this type of problem?
Thank you.
