It seems I have to twist a tad past infinity for telephone poles several yards away (perhaps 30 yards, or 100 feet)to line up--when I could have sworn objects at that distance lined up when the camera was new (just two months ago). However, if I focus on an object _way_ over yonder--like 300 feet away or more--then it seems they are aligned at infinity...and yet they are so small it is a bit difficult to tell, so perhaps my eyes are just playing tricks on me. In any event, my photos don't seem to be fuzzy, so perhaps it is nothing to worry about even if it has gone slightly adrift. Dan
