Focal Distance Erratic with Zoom

[Tillikum2009]

Hi,  

I’m using an X-T3 with 55-200 mm Fuji lens.  When I auto-focus on a subject the viewfinder scale indicates the distance.  However, when I zoom in on the subject, the indicator shows a different distance.  I also notice that sometimes when using autofocus it shows a different distance the same zoom level.  

I’m concerned as to whether the focus range is incorrect or alternately,  perhaps the focus is correct and just the scale is wrong.   

Any advice on this would be much appreciated. 

 

thanks,  Tim
