the maximum telephoto and wide angle settings of a zoom lens. In such cases, open the lens iris and adjust as follows.
1)Fixed focus lens
1. Set the lens focus ring to infinity.
2. Aim toward an object at least 20 meters distant.
3. Loosen the 2 lens mount screws and turn the lens mount ring to adjust the focus. Use care not to disturb the lens focus
ring.
4. Tighten the lens mount screws.
2)Zoom lens
1. Set the lens to telephoto and aim toward an object at least 20 meters distant.
2. Turn the lens focus ring to adjust the focus.
3. Set the lens to wide angle. Loosen the 2 Lens mount screws and turn the lens mount ring to adjust the focus. Use care
not to disturb the lens focus ring.
4. Again set to telephoto but adjust the focus by turning the lens mount.
5. Repeat these steps and carefully adjust for best focus.
6. Finally, tighten the lens mount screws.
Screw type: U1/4-20
Length L = 4 to 5.5mm
Screws longer than 5.5 mm can cause internal damage, while less
than 4 mm prevents secure fastening and risks dropping to cause
damage and injury.
Note
If using an auto iris lens and the adjustment object
distance is less than several meters, due to lens depth of
focus relationship, slight blurring can occur at certain iris
positions.
In this event, darken the scene so as to open the iris and adjust
the focus or flangeback to prevent the blurring.
