Just received my brand new camera and lens, so far so nice.
The first problem I see though is that the rangefinder and infinity setting on the lens do not match. When I focus on something very far away through the finder I have to set the lens well before "infinity". If I set the lens to infinity the rangefinder doesnt match.
Problem?
Also tried a different lens and shows the same issue.
I guess at large apertures (f1.5) my images will be way out of focus, correct?

Yes, on the last question, and yes it is a problem. I am sure there are "rangefinder fixes" DIY on the net, other wise, send to a repair-shop, you will not get proper focus, your rangefinder is out of whack, especially since you said it happens on all lenses.
