Advertisement Posted October 21, 2020 Posted October 21, 2020 Hi Jrek, Take a look here Rangefinder calibration cost in UK. I'm sure you'll find what you were looking for!
antigallican Posted October 21, 2020 Share #2 Posted October 21, 2020 (edited) It is quite possible to do this yourself. A search in the forum may reveal instructions or you may be lucky and Jaap will post a link. I managed it and I think of myself as lacking any particular skill in this area. Good luck Edited October 21, 2020 by antigallican misspelling Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robert M Poole Posted October 21, 2020 Share #3 Posted October 21, 2020 Cameraworks in Bury are meant to be good but a very long backlog of orders (at least six months). Looking on their website it looks like £210 for a rebuild/calibration of the rangefinder. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

jaapv Posted October 21, 2020 Share #7 Posted October 21, 2020 Advertisement (gone after registration) Not quite - that is when infinity is the only thing off. Which, admittedly is the most common problem, and a 5 minute DIY. However, there are cases that a whole system needs calibration, including the lenses.
