Focus Mechanism

CONSTRAINED_RECONSTRUCTION: Example 1 publishes only infinity zoom spacings. The patent states that normal focusing extends the front group, while Konica's production specification gives 0.8 m minimum focus measured from the film plane. D7 close-focus values are code-solved at each zoom state for that film-plane conjugate with the rear group and D15 held fixed. No additional internal movement is invented.
