•by rotating the lens focusing ring 46 •

The FM2 is provided with the Type K2 fo- cusing screen as standard. Look through the viewfinder while turning the focusing ring until the two halves of the split image rangefinder coincide perfectly to form a single unbroken image and the image in the microprism grid appears sharp. Cor- rect focus will then be secured.
