[QUOTE="Pretzel, post: 467393, member: 12257"] Best way to manually focus a lens to infinity is to focus all the way out, than back off slightly until your faraway subject is in focus. Most lenses (not just the old, but the new too) will go past infinity, and they appear to start focusing closer again. But if you start backing off gradually, you'll normally see it settle in. Give that a test and see how it works for you? And welcome to the forums! [/QUOTE]
