Thanks for sharing! I am reading all your posts with
invariable interest. I used to check the infinity
focus of 'normal' lenses using actual long dis-
tances, which I had to do on dark evenings in my
house's backyard with my father at the camera oper-
ating the focus ring and me some eight meters away
shouting to him: "Just half a degree back!"... It's
gonna be easier now.

Oh yes, actual infinity:-)
