Focus Settings
The settings in the "Focus" area enable
you to adapt the behavior of the motor-
ized focus to your wishes and requirements.
Changing the speed of focusing
1. Touch the "Focus/Zoom" tab.
2. Touch the "Speed" buttons to change the
setting between "Slow", "Fast" and "Auto".
Ϙ
The "Slow" setting changes the focus only
slowly. It is particularly suitable if you
usually work at a high magnification.
Ϙ
The "Fast" setting changes the focus more
quickly. It is suitable if you usually work at a
low magnification.
Ϙ
The "Auto" setting adapts the speed to the
respective magnification. It is particularly
suitable if you have to change magnifica-
tion frequently. Note that: High magnifica-
tion level = slow focus – Low magnification
level = fast focus.

Before the Leica SmartTouch™ can
measure the distance between the
current and top position, you have to calibrate
the focus. For instructions, refer to page 33.
