Focus Breathing Compensation
In most lenses when the focus is operated, the angular field of view changes much like zooming. This is called the zooming effect of focus, or "breathing." Utilizing digital control technology, Fujinon has solved this problem by enabling the angular field of view to remain constant by synchronizing the zoom movement to the focus movement, thus reducing image size change when focusing.
