Hi everyone,

I just got the 007 with the 100mm but the lens is back focusing and it gets worse the farther I try to focus. In live view is perfect but in OVF is the issue.

The lens is a demo so like new, and the store recommended to send it over to leica for a service or to switch lenses. I can also get my money back but I do want the lens. 

I tried the 70mm on the 007 and work prefect so i guess the camera is fine..

Anyone had this issue before? What would you recommend I do?

Did you find a solution? The interesting thing is that I also find the 100 to be the most critical to focus. It seems quite accurate in the closer distance range, but at distances over 2-3m more difficult to nail focus. Leica checked my camera and my lens (together with 2 other lenses) and calibrated and says all is fine. I still find the 100 difficult to focus. My 70 and 120 seem to be more consistant in this regard.
