Select two points that lie behind each other in space. Ideal are vertical lines (for instance
of houses, poles, pillars etc.).
Look through the viewfinder of your digital camera.
Position the camera, mounted on the VR Drive, in such a way that both lines are exactly
aligned. Thelineshouldbeeitheron thevery left or very right of the viewfinder /
screen.
Then turn the camera and observe the behaviour of vertical lines in the viewfinder.
If the two lines are still exactly behind each other after turning the camera the nodal point
is correctly set.
If not, change the position of the camera on the adjustment bar (C) forward or backward
and repeat this until both lines are perfectly aligned.
Good nodal point:

change
Bad nodal point:
