The thin metal ring inside the viewfinder of my top-
mounted Crown Graphic--visible from the REAR side of the
viewfinder window--has loosened from its proper
position, and is now blocking part of the view through
the viewfinder, when I hold the camera up to my eye to
look through. I think this piece is SUPPOSED to
surround the window of the viewfinder, and hence be
visible, but it is clearly extending into and
interfering with a complete unobstructed view through
the viewfinder. Is there any way to easily reposition
this metal ring by myself, by opening up any portion of
or the whole rangefinder box atop the camera? Or should
I send it a more knowledgable repairperson, specialized
in the repair of Graphic cameras?
