You DO have to calibrate the autofocus cam for your lens, your base board height, and so on, but the instructions that came with the enlarger should tell you how to do that, or the nice folks in New Jersey at Leica can send you the instructions -- once set, they stay for life. charlie trentelman In a message dated 5/14/04 7:51:43 AM, lug-request@leica-users.org writes: > > Message: 4 > Date: Fri, 14 May 2004 10:45:18 +0100 > From: "Beddoe, Neil" <nbeddoe@lehman.com> > Subject: [Leica] Focotar 40mm and Leitz Focomat V35 > To: "'Leica Users Group'" <lug@leica-users.org>,? ?
