Attaching a Lens
Chapter 2 Installation and Preparations
To change a shim
Exercise care not to damage the internal wiring of the
camera when changing the shim. Modifying a shim,
scratching a surface, or introducing dust can change the
flange back distance and damage the camera such that it
cannot be restored to original condition, just as for a film
camera.
1 Remove the lens mount screws (6).
2 Pull the lens mount out by about 10 mm (
13
/
32
inch)
and remove the shim carefully.
Pass the shim slit over the wiring, taking care not to
pull the wiring, when removing the shim.
Pulling the lens mount out by more than 20 mm
(
3
/
4
inch) risks damage to the internal wiring.
3 Insert the replacement shim using the shim slit to clear
the wiring, and align the camera screw holes and shim
alignment pins.
4 Reattach the lens mount in its original position, and
fasten the screws to a torque of 0.53 N·m (0.39 lbf).
