Negatives of the second film put through my allegedly "fully working, Exc+ six months guaranteed" bewitching :roll eyes: Canon 7 reveal that all the frames taken with the similarly described freshly serviced Canon 50mm f1.2 are unfocused, and the remainder - with a similar quality (but not recently serviced) Canon 135mm f3.5 are in focus. As I have been a keen amateur for 50 years, used RF and a SLR Leicas, SLR Nikons, etc with moderate to great success, this anomaly has completely baffled me. The only cause I can imagine is that the rangefinder actuating arm and or its roller are out of line.. though not by enough when the cam of the 135 comes by. And before any one asks, yes I turn the 135's distance scale to 1m before I put the lens on.
ps All the Negatives from the first film (all taken with the 50mm lens) are out of focus, which is why I tried another film just after the 135lens was bought.
