At first, I thought it might mean that the user can either look at the two images in the RF patch and tweak the focus until they merge into one or, alternatively, look at a vertical line that passes through the RF patch and tweak the focus until it shows no discontinuity, such as with the central split-image part of a typical SLR focusing screen. However, this seems so blindingly obvious as to be not worth even mentioning, unless Leica is assuming that its customers are mentally deficient. So ... what does it really mean?
