I have a yashica electro, the camera focuses correctly at infinity - has been tested, however the focus ring doesnt align correctly on the mark on the focus scale. - doesnt quite get to infinity and at the other end goes past 0.8.
Is there a way to adjust it?
there are 3 screws on the focus ring a small one at the 1m and 2 other larger ones further to the left and right of the focus distances.
Which of these 3 screws do I adjust?
Are there any problems doing this, just finished with the light seals and POD and it works great as it is so if there is a problem I will just live with it.
Saw a thread where the focus ring was loose, but it didnt have a solution.
Thanks in advance for the help
Nathan
