Greetings nikonites,
Not too long ago I picked up an old manual Nikkor 300mm f2.8 (ED-IF) telephoto lens to use on my Nikon D7000 camera. The lens generally works fine (nice glass), but I was disappointed to find that it will *not* focus to infinity. I'm wondering, firstly, is this due simply to a well-known (except to me) detail of incompatibility between manual lenses of this type and the D7000, or is it more likely that the lens is defective? Secondly, is there an easy, practical, and hopefully-not-too-expensive means of adjusting either camera or lens for focus at infinity?
Thanks in advance to anyone for any suggestions!
