If the lens does not stay in focus properly as you
zoom from telephoto to wide angle, adjust the
flange focal length (the distance from the plane of
the lens mounting flange to the imaging plane).
When carrying out the adjustment, use the
supplied flange focal length adjustment chart as
the subject.
Notes
• Subjecting the camcorder to severe shocks and large
temperature variations may result in flange back
errors.
• If you use a subject with insufficient contrast, or move
the camcorder or subject during adjustment, this will
cause an adjustment error.
• Place the subject (the flange focal length adjustment
chart) so that it appears at the center of the screen at the
telephoto end. Arrange so that no nearby object (no
object closer to the camera than the chart) enters the
screen at the wide-angle end.
Carrying out the adjustment
With the camcorder, zoom and focus operations
automatically adjust the flange focal length.
1
Open the iris, position the supplied
flange focal length adjustment chart
approximately 3 meters (10 ft) away
from the camcorder, and arrange the
lighting to obtain a satisfactory video
output.

FB Adjust >Execute in the setup menu.
The flange focal length adjustment starts.
During adjustment
The message “AUTO FB Adjust
EXECUTING” appears on the viewfinder
screen.
If the adjustment completes correctly
The message on the viewfinder screen
changes to “Auto FB Adjust: OK”.
If the flange focal length adjustment does
not complete correctly
Check the subject and lighting conditions,
and repeat the adjustment.
