    The focusing lens on the K-1020 assures sharp pictures at any distance.
     Circle micro-dia-prism can be seen from viewfinder eyepiece. When an object is not clear
J    through this circle, the distance is not properly adjusted. Turning focus ring can  adjust
     the distance and when the distance is correct the object looks clear.
