Seems that with Canon adapter infinity is at about 25 meters.

Is there an easy fix?

(if there isn't I'll keep it as a portrait lens)

I have the Б version, I don't have problem with usual P6 to M42. Do you have other lenses to test the adapter?

Still, strange that you mounted a V lens on P6 adapter, since V are not P6 mount. Maybe it was adapted, not regarding to the different focal flange?
Б/P6 = 74.10mm
V/Kiev-88 = 82.10mm

???

ok, that was new

so the (cyrillic)B = V is kiev 88 version, and I have a modified one

but 8mm is damn much difference, it is noticed but not that well, I wonder it was cheap (about 30€)

Maybe your adapter usualy go past infinity with normal lens + at this distance from sensor, I think mm does less difference than when lens is close to sensor.

I think it's just the opposite, at macro distances lenses move almost centimetres but from say 10 meter to infinity just fractions of millimetres.

edit: going to see if there is an k88 -> p6 adapter attached I didn't notice Confused

sorry about the picture quality but it is a really hot summer day here Wink

is this some sort of adapter or some factory conversion kit - or some local hack?
mount says KO-6/62 and an Arsenal logo



straight p6 bayonet, not k88 thread?

Here's "proper" Kaleinar-3B (Not V):

So it's definitly a modified V mount converted to Б with a reversing ring. See more infos here : http://araxfoto.com/accessories/reversing-ring-62/
