Yes, you are right. Hyperfocal distance is by definition the focus distance where the far DOF limit is infinity. DOF can be calculated without referring to it, but using it makes the formulas simpler.

Correct a possible misconception for me, please?

I've always thought that, strictly speaking, any hyperfocal distance "range" had it's 'far end' anchored at infinity, by definition, regardless of what the rest of the line segment looks like, where the nearest distance point lies, etc.
If that's not true, I need to know now, so I don't further mess up my fragile brain memory cells!


Get me that answer, and I'll work out the rest for myself.
