It seems that this Flektogon is slightly off infinite focus.

Does anyone know how to adjust it?
Any instructions?

Does it focus beyond infinity (in which case, an adaptor may be to blame) or not reaching infinity?

Mine was way off infinity, but maybe my instructions will still be helpful - http://forum.mflenses.com/m42-to-eos-adapter-for-zeiss-flektogon-35-2-4-t17371.html

If you are using an adapter, it may be that it has wrong thickness.

Adapter is good, it's a lens issue.

Have you tried it on an M42 camera ?

Adapter thickness is 1.45mm which should enable infinite focus.

I will have a look at this.

Adapter is ok ... because it is only 1.45mm thick
