Alberti Posted October 4, 2023 Share #41  Posted October 4, 2023 Advertisement (gone after registration) Today I had a similar problem. The minimum focus was not reached; the RF spot stopped moving (I looked and it was at about 1m50). What turned out to be the issue? I had not enganged the right frameline  in the correct fashion (turned a slight bit too far or not far enough). That means the roller will be limited by the cutout. After I noted (I must admit it took some time) I engaged it correctly and the 70cm was available again. could that be an issue? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

UliWer Posted October 6, 2023 Share #43  Posted October 6, 2023 Usually your lenses bayonet (or the adapter) triggers the frames. Though you can „cheat“ the mechanism by turning the lens clockwise (seen from the front) when you keep the release knob pressed. Instead of the frames for 50 or 35mm you then always get the 28/90mm frames. If you do so the focus mechanism of the rangefinder will disengage at probably 1.5m. There is no difference between film and digital M cameras in this respect. The frames are always engaged mechanically, for the newer digital models they are only illuminated by LED and not by ambient light as before. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
