The autofocus adjustment will only alter the relationship of the lens to the focal plane. In other words, you can't choose to adjust one end of the focal length range and not the other. I don't own that lens, so I can't tell you if it's a problem on my camera, but my DA 16-45 and DA 50-200 seem to focus just fine. I will, however, try to duplicate what you describe here later today. I'm not sure I've attempted a shot at infinity. Paul
