with
the
split-image
spot,
peer
into
the
viewfinder
and turn the focusing
ring
until the
split
images
of the
subject in the
upper
and
lower
half
of
the
prism
in
the
center
of
the finder
match
up.
The
subject
is
in focus, when
the
images
are matched
up but
will
be out-of-focus if
they
are
not
matched
up
precisely.
<Focusing

the
microprism
collar or matte
screen>
Turn
the Focusing
Ring
until
the image
on the
microprism
collar or
matte
screen
appears
sharp. lf the
lens is
not
correctly focused,
the image
on
the
microprism
collar
will
appear
grainy
and that
on the
matte
screen will
be unsharp.
