Re: [OM] Infinity Focus problem - 55mm f1.2

Consider also the possibility that your mirror is out of adjustment 
before taking a lens apart. If you have different bodies, check it out 
on them. Check out other lenses on the same body with the 2.5x. I bought 
a zoom a while ago and was checking it out when I discovered that it 
wouldn't focus to infinity at the wide end. I was getting all wound up 
about all the hassle of a return, but then thought to check it out on 
another body and vice versa. I had one body with the mirror out of 
adjustment. Remember the critical focal distance is lens to film and the 
viewfinder has to be adjusted to that.
