Focal Length

If the lens does not stay in focus properly as you zoom from telephoto to
wide angle, adjust the flange focal length (the distance from the plane of
the lens mounting flange to the imaging plane). Make this adjustment
after mounting or changing the lens.

Adjusting the flange focal length

The positions of the controls for adjusting the flange focal length vary
somewhat from lens to lens. Check the identification of the various
controls in the lens manual.
