Subject: [Leica] Vertical Alignment & Shutter Release Problems

Hi!

I just took delivery of a Leica M6 TTL and was having fun checking it out
when I found the vertical alignment was out by a bit.  While this may not be
that noticeable in the 0.72x finder, I find the aligned image a little
fuzzy.  Also, the shutter release needs to be pressed all the way down to
the retaining ring to fire the shutter.  I find my hand shaking when I do
this.

Does anyone know if I can DIY the vertical alignment and shutter release?  I
know how to remove the top plate of a classic M6, assuming the TTL's top
plate isn't much different.

Many thanks in advance for any advice.  I may be reached at mauler@mac.com.

Cheers!

Roy
