    Default Vari focal adjustment

    My camera has a 2.8 to 11mm lens, external focal length and zoom controls. When it comes time to adjust it to a zoomed in position will I need to adjust the focal length aswell?

    Yes. If you adjust T-W (zoom), you'll also need to adjust N-F (Focus) to compensate for the changes.

    Cool

    Also , if you are adjusting it to zoom in (T) take it to the limit of the adjustment then back it off just a bit. On many lens's you will not quite get it to focus at the extreme limit of the zoom.
