I had a similar situation about 16 years ago. The shop said that the camber was off, and that it would probably not mean that much. I have also read elsewhere that toe in is the  most important adjustment to get correct. 

The shop adjusted the toe in correctly to spec and my tyres stopped wearing unevenly. This was the first shop to do an alignment that did not sell tyres. Previously I had alignments done by shops that do sell tyres, and the tyres still scrubbed afterwards. I ended up replacing them as the were dry rotted after 14 years, still with a fair bit of tread left on them. So if you do not drive you car that much and the tires are wearing okay then you may want to leave it as it is, and just monitor how your tyres wear. I cannot remember what the numbers were on my car, but I do have the alignment records at home, so I can see how far off they are for a comparison.

Hi All,
   Just had an alignment done by a very competent shop that dies quite a bit of British and they couldn?t see a way to adjust camber and nothing is mentioned in my manual. LH side is ? 0.57, RH side is ? 2.28. Any input?
Gord
