As the star image becomes smaller, it will also become brighter. When you cannot get it
any smaller, you are in proper focus. If it starts to enlarge again, then you've gone too far.
Reverse the focusing direction and make very gradual adjustments to tighten it up.
8. When you are satisfied with the focus, click the Restore button in the Area Display. The
preview images will then begin to show the full field again.
TIP: Use the Area Display function once you're on your target in order to have a closer look
at any portion of a preview image. This can help you to set the exposure controls properly to get
the details you want. Note however that if you do not restore the preview image before taking an
actual capture, then only the selected area will be saved in your captured image file.
At this point, you are ready to adjust the other camera controls to obtain a proper image.
