Hello everyone,

My infinity question is refering to R8 with tele lens.  The subject I chose
to check focus was very far away (2-3 miles minimum)

Thanks in advance.

Best regards,
Ben


P.S.  Jim and Nathan,  appreciate for your advice.  I should have been more
specific when posting my question.  Sorry again.
