On my Elmo ST 1200 HD, there is a minor focus problem in that I cannot get the entire picture pin-sharp. The right hand side of the picture is very slightly "soft" when the middle is fine. It's not a big problem, in fact most probably wouldn't even notice, but I just wondered if there was a simple adjustment?

Yes on the bottom of the lens mount on the right hand side as viewed from the front of the machine you will see a very small cross head screw. This is for making sure the lens is paralell to the film. Only a small adjustment will be needed.
