Focus Mechanism

The model stays at infinity. The patent prints no focus data, so no focus motion is modeled, and 1.4 m is the retail minimum focus distance, not a modeled state. The image plane is the computed paraxial focus, 81.02 mm behind the last surface; the patent prints no back focus. The patent's 14° half field reaches 37.91 mm on the image plane. The 39.6 mm corner of the 6x6 format lies at 14.59°, just beyond the printed field.
