I am just trying out my Hv20 with Brevis 35mm adapter + Flip, and the problem is not centering left to right, that's easy, the problem is that I lose at least 25-30% off the top when I zoom in! There is just not enough play in the system to compensate for that amount of loss. I must be doing something wrong because no amount modifying the set screws will change this. Otherwise everything is sharp corner to corner. Any suggestions?
Help! Brevis+Flip CANNOT CENTER TOP/BOTTOM

There are two points of adjustment, one at the Brevis/flip interface, and one at the flip achromat. Between the two you should be able to get things perfectly centered in both the X and Y axis as we've got a total of at least 2-3mm to play with...likely the largest adjustment range in the industry. If you completely back off the eight set screws at the Brevis/flip interface, you'll get full adjustment range.

We just picked up a second HV20 and I was happy to see that it does not suffer the offset imaging block that our first one did. The old one has a solid 10% skew to the right...the new one is nearly dead center. Not sure if we got lucky, or the issue's been resolved on the manufacturing side.
