Today realised this 28/2 I bought prevent my RTS III mirror return when used at infinity. But it works fine with Aria at infinity. Not sure this lens has been repaired before but the image in view finder looks ok to me maybe will still keep this lens.
You should send your RTS III for a repair then........as the mirror had been slipped down already
I encountered the same problem around 4-5 yrs ago..........and had sent it back to Japan for a mirror replacement.
Since then I always keep the body laying flat in the dry box!
The most interesting thing for the design of the reflex mirror of RTS III is that........there should be some space between the mirror and the "end-stoppers" on the two sides of the tip of the frame holding the mirror
By the time you see the mirror "touching" with the "end-stoppers", you should be able to see the mirror slipped out of the frame already! (You can check by using the mirror lock-up button, and you may see the tip of the mirror came out of the frame even!)
