Focus distance is measured from the focal plane mark (E) on the
camera body, which shows the position of the focal plane inside
the camera (q). Use this mark when measuring the distance t

your subject for manual focus or macro photography. The distance
between the focal plane and the lens mounting flange is known
as the “flange-back distance” (w). On this camera, the flange-back
distance is 16mm (0.63in.).
