1. The white shading can be adjusted for general lenses using the above method. However, this
method may not apply for extremely special lenses.
2. Vertical coloring may occur near the open position of the lens iris even after performing the
above adjustments. However, this is characteristic of the optical system of the lens, and does
not indicate a malfunction.
3. When the lens with the 16:9/4:3 mode switch function is being used in 4:3 mode, set the cam-
era to 4:3 mode as well and adjust the white shading as the ambient amount of light will drop.
