4. Adjustments
[Modification of an Inspection Lens to an Adjustment Lens]
[It is common with FinePix S1 Pro]
* If an inspection interchangeable lens is used as is, the
aperture will change automatically, so there will be no
convergence [ISO sensitivity adjustment] and it could result
in an error.
Therefore,
(1) The CPU signal contact unit inside the lens must be
removed.
(2) The protrusion for mounting on the camera must be
removed from the inspection interchangeable lens to
prevent it from switching its aperture automatically, and
thus modify the lens so it can be used for adjustment.
The modification procedure is shown below.
[Step 1]
Turn the focus ring (1) so that the interchangeable lens's
distance scale reads 0.45, then place the lens upside down.

[Step 2]
