This relates to the metal field cameras: Wista 45 VX/SP/RF and perhaps N and D.
When you open the camera, the back should be 90 degrees to the bed in the "neutral" position. Mine is not. It's of by a few degrees, so I have to carefully align the back before shooting (assuming I want everything parallel). This is a pain.
Nothing seems to be loose in the hinge mechanism, but something clearly is out of position because the back is supposed to be 90 degrees to the bed in the neutral position. In the attached picture I'm showing the body open to what should be the 90 degree position. The hinge mechanism looks like it permits adjustments but I'd like to know how to do it in advance! Does anyone know how to correct this problem?
