If inifinity focus is off, means the adaptor is not according to spec. Need to trim it.

The adapter could be too thick.. so the lens when fitted is slight out than where it should be.. that's why cannot focus far distant subject, ie infinity focus.

To trim, usually or so far I know people sandpaper the adapter. Messy job.. :sweat:
