    Ahh.  Cool beans.  I wouldn't mind giving it a try myself.  In fact I
    tried to adjust the vertical alignment last night.  ^_^
    
    I removed the tiny screw above the lens mount from the top plate last
    night and didn't see another screw below.  I saw another tiny hole
    below that moved slightly from left to right when I threw the lens'
    focus from one extreme to the other.  It was hard to make out anything
    behind the hold, but it looked like some tiny threads or something of
    that sort.  I figured this was the newer style that required the
    special tool.  I really have idea though.  I don't have another body to
    compare it with.
