Viewfinder tension adjustment

The screw (B) at the base of the viewfinder, allows you to modify the view-

finder left/right lateral friction. Turn counterclockwise to increase the friction.

Turning this screw until it reaches its stop, locks the viewfinder’s left/right

movement.

The friction adjusting knurled screw (C), located on the front of the viewfinder,

can be used to adjust the tension of the eyepiece swivel, depending on the

Operator’s preference and on the type of viewfinder being used. When using

the standard eyepiece, tension should be relatively light to allow for move-

ment with a moderate amount of pressure. When using a finder extension,

tension should be increased to support the additional weight.

To adjust the tension of the swivel, rotate the knurled screw (C), clockwise to

increase tension and counterclockwise to decrease tension.

Adjusting the viewing horizon

If the rotation of the image seen through the camera’s viewfinder does not

exactly match what is seen with the naked eye, there is a fine adjustment

that can be made to the image’s relative horizon. Find the knurled knob (D)

located on top of the viewfinder. While looking through the viewfinder, turn

the knob in order to adjust the image’s upright position.

NOTE: the knob needs to be turned 180° when installing an eyepiece exten-

sion.
