Focus adjusting on GX-10

ITW · 12-27-2010, 04:42 PM

Hi

I bought an new sigma lens that doesn't focus any good.

So I read something about that you can adjust the focus for about 4 lenses.

I have the new one 18-50 f2.8 sigma that back focus.
The sigma 24-70f2.8 that almost perfect.
Sigma 10-20 thats great.

So I only want to adjust the nwe 18-50 f2.8

Is there anyway to do that on the Samsung GX-10?

GX10 = K10D.

I don't know where the "adjust focus for 4 lenses" comes from... as far as I know the K10D has a single global focus adjustment.

Yea that was what I found out also, but read somewhere about 4 lens profiles.
But possible not true.

Service techs can adjust more than one lens and have the camera remember. The key is they have a program that just runs on a PC and interfaces with the GX10. Before performing the AF fine tunning they enter the lens ID number. I have the GX10 service manual but it does not state any limit for the lens it can hold. I have read 4 is the limit many times on forums but?

There is no way you can do this, you will have to stick to using a global adjustment.
