The adjustment found underneath the screw on the film plane is for rf
infinity only. There is another adjustment inside for (I think) a closer
setting like 9 feet. I've never adjusted that one, it is factory set. Once
you disturb it you may not get it back. A number on the focus ring should
not be confused with a real distance in setting up the rf. Lens infinity
must be set first with a collimator, then you set infinity on the
rangefinder. There's also an up-down adjustment.
