Focusing the Lens
When the lens has been focused, the double image superimposing rangefinder produces two 
superimposed images with in the square of the viewfinder. 
Focusing method within the double image 
coincidence zone 
Position the subject within the central square of the 
viewfinder. As on the top left the subject will appear as 
double images. 
Rotate the focusing ring until the two images converge 
and are superimposed as on the figure on the left. The 
lens is now focused. 
Focusing method at the edge of double image 
coincidence zone 
Look at the object through the rangefinder and rotate 
the focus ring so as to make two images into one 
without any imaginal slippage at the edge of the central 
double image coincidence zone. As this method 
improves the focusing preciseness, this is especially 
effective for N150 mm f/4.5 L lens.
