3.   Activate the live view of your camera, select the maximum magnifi cation. 
4.   Set the distance ring to the test distance according to the tables in the 

appendix. This setting must not be changed during the adjustment process. 

5.   Set the aperture of the lens to full speed.
6.   Obtain maximum image sharpness on the live view by varying the distance 

bet ween the test chart and the camera. 

7.   Now remeasure the distance between the image plane mark on the camera body 

and the test chart (= the actual distance). 

 

 

8.   If the distance has changed, the fl ange focal distance of the lens must be 

adjusted by using the colored shims. 

 

ȴ You fi nd a list of tables in the appendix for each focal length to calculate the 

resultant change of the fl ange focal distance. 

9.   Now remove the lens from the camera.

 

 

10.  Remove the EF mount and EF adapter ring (cf. section C 2–4).
