I don't quite understand what your question is, but if you think that infinity focus is o.k. on this lens, then you might have to adjust your camera body for close focusing. There is a tutorial that explains this on the web:

Scroll to the bottom of that page to see how you can adjust the camera body for proper close focusing. |

There are Jupiter-9's in Kiev, Zorki M39, Zenit M39 and M42 mount (and maybe others). If yours is an M39 rangefinder lens, there is a good chance that it has been "repaired" at some time and the rangefinder cam put back in wrong so that the focus of the lens does not match the viewfinder. If it's an SLR lens, please disregard this message.... |

SRL lens. It was "touched" and focus close to 75 cmm and at the infinite focus acually at 7 meters.
I want to adjust it. But if it's vcery difficult, I let stay it as now. |
