Does anyone have any tips on how to re-focus a teleconverter?
I've found that with my Soligor, a lens on the end of it can't quite focus as far out as normal. So my lenses with accurate hard-stops at infinity can no longer focus to infinity with the TC mounted.
I've confirmed that it isn't just a TC sharpness issue, as I have a lens which normally focuses past infinity, which can just barely still focus to infinity on the TC.
The optics in this Soligor are all one set, so I can't adjust the elements independently... however, they are mounted in a small threaded tube which can be adjusted forward/backward.
The question is... how do you best adjust this? I could turn it small amounts and keep checking it, but that requires dismounting & remounting the lens & TC each time... is that the best way?
