				| Site instructions for adjusting the sidemount Kalart Rangefinder only include the 127mm, 135mm, and 152mm lenses.  Can the rangefinder be adjusted to work with the 203mm Ektar? |

				| I don't think it can.  The repair manual for it mentions settings up to 160mm or so.   |

				I dug out the manuals for the Kalart RFs and looked up the calibration charts: for the 4x5 format the longest lens covered is 6 3/8" (approx. 165mm) for the model E RF, and 11 3/4" (approx 300mm) for the older model F.
