Focus Monitor mode is available for manual focusing. 
 
(1)  General method for focusing and astigmatism correction 
Focusing and astigmatism corrections are related to each other and need to be repeated 
alternately.    Use the following process to complete adjustments. 
 
(a)  Focus the image.    When there is no astigmatism, the sharpest image is obtained at the 
best-focus point. 
When there is astigmatism, the image looks like its stretching in one direction at an over focused 
or under-focused condition, and uniformly focused at the best-focus point. 
 
 
 
 
 
No image drift
