Hi, so I have this gorgeous Hexar RF that focuses perfectly except at infinity. With the 50mm Hexanon if focuses short, with the 35/1.7 CV it focuses past infinity, basically it varies from lens to lens. The amount in all cases is very tiny, but still. I am trying to figure out if the focus can be adjusted for all the lenses or is it something that will be lens specific, i.e. it might work perfectly with one lens but not another? Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
 
Hi Roland, thank you for the tips. I just tried the same two lenses on a couple of other M bodies, seems that the 50 Hexanon is fine but the 35 CV is indeed misaligned, bummer.

This sounds like a fun project, now where are my jeweler's tools.. Good thing there is always DAG in case I mess up badly with this :)
