I'm not sure whether you would want to believe a non-tech person about this but here goes. There is a horizontal adjustment which can be made very easily. Take off the lens and you will find a black screw immediately top centre. VERY carefully turn the screw. Re-attach your lens, focus on infinity and test to check that everything is lining up. Then do it again because you went too far... etc. etc.. Now if anyone can tell me how to make the VERTICAL adjustment I would be grateful. I have had this adjustment done at our registered Leica importer about 18months ago and it has slipped again. At $255 minimum per visit I would rather try it myself!!
