How to set the rear flange on the 16x manual lens? at DVinfo.net

Hi all,

I just purchased the 16x manual lens and I need to set the back focus (rear flange). I wondered if any of you have suggestions about how best to do this...
For example, "make sure you have the iris set to 5.6 and you are 3' away from a vertically lined surface....."

Hey, if none of you have any pointers, maybe I will try my own example...lol.

Thanks in advance,
Matt

No biggie, it was hiding in our XL1 forum, so I copied it over to here.
