A method of making axial alignment of a charged particle beam starts with obtaining at least first through sixth image data while controlling the focal position of the beam on a sample in the direction of incidence, the excitation current in a first alignment coil, and the excitation current in a second alignment coil. Then, values of the excitation currents in the first and second alignment coils for the axial alignment of the beam are calculated from the at least first through sixth image data.
