Hi! How to adjust infinity focus on one touch vivitar 70-150mm f3.8. It can not reach infinity. It focuses ok on closer objects (as expected).
I've tried removing the focusing rubber and fiddeling with available screws but to no avail.
Does the front ring with brand name have to be removed?
Any help appreciated.

Thanks

First check to see if it's the lens OR the camera. Have you checked the camera with other lenses? If you still think it's the lens, yes I believe you will have to unscrew the name ring and proceed to make adjustments under that. Call if you need to: www.flcamerarepair.com (Art)

We may have that repair manual in the Kiron Klub. The (very good) Vivitar 70-150 was made by Kiron for Vivitar.
