unless of course you mean that you must spend $1000 to obtain a body both free from severe vibration and a properly aligned focus screen?

Unless my grammar is off (not an uncommon thing, by any means), "both" signals the reader that two distinct items are coming up for consideration ("this" and "that"). "Free" is a member of the phrase concluding "from severe vibration" and "properly" is a member of the phrase concluding "aligned focus screen".
That said, I freely own to having been formally educated in the Southern region of the Great State of Texas, with all the implicit limitations (and advantages, should they turn up) that entails. And I'm pretty good at hitting things with a stick, too. <g>
