Just collected an e*ay Tamron 500/8 SP mirror lens from the post office --
seems fine so far, though until I get stuff printed I'm not sure, of course.
Question: it focuses fine all the way up to infinity -- but then it'll
focus a bit further. The focus scale on the lens makes it pretty clear that
this is deliberate -- there's a mark at infinity, and then the scale
continues a bit -- but why? What's the advantage of focussing further away
than infinity?
thanks,
-- dan
