SINGLE-ELEMENT INNER FOCUS

Focus Mechanism

Reconstructed inner focus: L7–1/G2 moves imageward while G1 and G3 remain fixed. The modeled close state focuses at the marketed 0.45 m distance with a fixed image plane. The patent’s close row changes an image-side spacing, so this endpoint is calculated rather than directly published.
