It is possible to take close-ups with your Realist by loosening
this screw and focusing past 2.5 feet!

Very interesting.  Where is this "little screw" located???

Thanks

It's the little screw on the focussing wheel on the end of the camera. It has
a rather "tall" head which catches on the focus pointer to stop the wheel
going round and round. 

Undoing the screw allows the wheel to turn further, and the camera to focus
closer than 2.5 ft...
