I think he is talking about the internal Electronic Focus Control,
Not the external Eyepiece adjustment.
There is usually 2 pots, that you can adjust,
One for Brightness and another for focus.
But I think by the problem you have,, its Cap juice under components on the
Evf, which can be a real bugger to remove.
