Automatic Adjustment of Flange
Focal Length
When automatic adjustment of flange focal
length is activated, focusing is performed both at
the wide-angle and telephoto ends of the zoom for
flange focal length adjustment and the result is
stored so that the in-focus condition is maintained
even if you change the zoom position after
focusing.
Notes
• If a subject of insufficient contrast is used, or if the
camcorder or subject moves during the adjustment,
adjustment cannot be made properly. Once the
adjustment begins, do not touch the camcorder body or
lens until it ends.
• Set “SLS/EX SLS” of the CAMERA SET menu to
“OFF” before starting the adjustment.
• Be careful that no light source, such as a lamp, the sun,
or a bright window, is in field of view during flange
focal length adjustment.
• Contact your dealer if a flange focal length adjustment
chart is required.

Place a high-contrast subject, such as a
flange focal length adjustment chart,
about 3 m (10 ft.) away from the
camcorder, and light it well enough to
provide a sufficient video output level.
Frame the subject so that it is located in the
center at the telephoto end of the zoom. Make
sure that any object located closer to the lens
than the subject is out of frame at the wide-
angle end.

Set the ZOOM switch on the bottom of
the camcorder to SERVO (Power Zoom

SET menu to “Execute” in the setup
menu, then press the SEL/SET button

completion message is displayed.
Notes
• “Auto FB Adjust” cannot be selected when the ND
filter is set to 1 or 2.
• Do not change the ND filter while “Auto FB Adjust” is
in operation.
If you press the CANCEL button during
adjustment
Automatic adjustment of the flange focal length is
aborted and the condition before starting the
adjustment is resumed.
If the adjustment fails
An error message is displayed.
Check the conditions of the subject and lighting
then perform the adjustment again.
