At the Bench: Back Focusing the Canon 18-80mm Servo Zoom

The Canon CN-E 18-80mm T4.4 Servo Zoom is lightweight and versatile, making it a great choice when you're shooting in ENG mode. In this blog, I go through the steps you'll take in order to set back focus on this lens.

When you're checking out your gear, it is always critical that back focus is properly set. This will ensure that focus is maintained through the entire range of the zoom. From how to set up your camera to what tools you'll need, I show you the whole process step-by-step and point out important settings while testing.
