Lens flange back adjustment

Lens flange back adjustment can be performed by turning the screw in Lens flange back adjustment hole (page 10). The lens flange back length
will become longer when turned clockwise. The lens flange back length will become shorter when turned counterclockwise. Turn slowly since accurate
adjustment is required.
To adjust the lens flange back, execute in an environment with appropriate measurement equipment.

t The camera will not operate properly when the screw in the lens flange back adjustment hole is turned excessively. Stop turning when the amount of
lens flange back stops changing. Guideline for the limit is 12 turns clockwise and 12 turns counterclockwise.
t The factory setting will be changed at the point the screw in the lens flange back adjustment hole is turned. Please note when performing the
adjustment.
