The following has also been posted on the DPI forum.
Here is a riddle for you. I am unable to achieve infinity focus with my Zeiss ZM lenses using the CQ M to G1 adapter on the G1. No infinity focus problem with the same lenses on the M8. Also, my CV lenses do not have infinity focus problems using the same CQ adapter on the G1. I'm waiting to receive John's new GM adapter so I can check the same lenses again for infinity focus on the G1 with a different adapter. Any ideas on why this is happening?
Here are some 100% center crops:
