Adjust focus with the Focus Assistant

Note
• The view in front of the camera should not be changed during focus adjustment. If the camera is moved, or if a finger or
other object is placed in front of the lens, restart the procedure.
• If movements in front of the camera cannot be avoided, the Focus Assistant should not be used.
• If the control button is not released within two seconds, AXIS Dynamic DNS Service is enabled instead of the Focus Assistant.
• If the camera is mounted so that the control button cannot be accessed, you can still use the Focus Assistant. Follow the
instructions but enable the Focus Assistant before mounting the camera.
