Back focus adjustment

To adjust the back focus, refer to the instruction manual provided with the lens you are using.

Back focus adjustment is required only when the lens is installed. No further adjustment is necessary.

White balance must be adjusted beforehand each time you shoot.

Be sure to check the colour tone of the monitor using the BAR signal before adjusting white balance.

If the monitor’s colour tone is incorrect, it may not be possible to accurately adjust the white balance.
