Focus Mechanism

PUBLISHED — single-element internal focus: the negative G3 meniscus (Element 9) moves toward the image as focus shortens from infinity to the patent's 0.3 m state, which matches the marketed minimum focus distance (D1 1.00 → 3.76 mm; D2 4.43 → 1.88 mm). The printed D1 + D2 grows by 0.21 mm although G2 and G4 are fixed; the printed spacings are kept.
