Abstract

An adjusting screw for adjusting the inclination of a sensor unit body including sensing means for producing the information about the focus adjusted state on the basis of a light beam from an objective lens is moved with the sensor unit body perpendicularly to the optic axis of the objective lens, whereby adjustment of the optic axis of the objective lens is accomplished. At least two adjusting means are provided for inclining the sensing means itself at a predetermined angle with respect to the optic axis.
