Table for shims to adjust Compact Prime CP.2 lenses when used on digital cameras

Example

Using a Compact Prime CP.2 35mm/T2.1 lens with an EF mount, scaled in feet and
a test chart at a test distance of 4 ft, an actual distance of 4 ft 1’ is measured.
Due to the table on page 14, a silver shim 0.013 mm must therefore be added to the
total thickness of the shims.

Note

Any combination of shims is possible to achieve the required thickness and therefore
the desired flange focal distance. Always use the closest possible combination of shims.

11.

Determine the total thickness of the shims that are already installed in the lens groove.

Increase or decrease the total shim thickness according to the tables in the appendix by using
a flat-bladed screw-driver or a pair of tweezers.




12.

Place the black EF adapter ring on the lens barrel and tighten the screws using

a torque of 0.4 Nm.

13.

The next step is to place the silver EF mount on the EF adapter ring and tighten the screws

using a torque of 0.4 Nm.

14.

Recheck the flange focal distance of the lens (see section D)

in combination with the camera you use.
