Guairao Posted September 11, 2013 Share #1 Â Posted September 11, 2013 Advertisement (gone after registration) Hi everyone, I'm new here and hope someone can help me. I bought a leica R 50mm summicron made in Canada 2780309. The glass is almost perfect like the body. Focus and aperture are also in good shape. The problem I got is related with a focus issue. I can focus right but the scale doesn't match. To focus far away (almost infinity) the focus scale is between 8 and 10 feet.Not match between be in focus to infinity and the scale reading. Is like the breath's focus is shorter. I'm shooting with m4/3 mount. How can that be? Best regards. Francisco Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

sc_rufctr Posted September 12, 2013 Share #2 Â Posted September 12, 2013 Maybe the lens has been cleaned and serviced but reasembled incorrectly. It's easily done. Just retreading at the wrong point can case this especially with Vario lenses. Â Is it a deal breaker? Depends on how much you rely on he focusing scale. Â It wouldn't be expensive to fix. Any compete tech could put it right. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
