Thanks for the pointer to the discussion of hyperfocal distance.  I've been
using the depth of field scales in exactly that way, but I was just
wondering if I had it right.  What a pleasure it is to use them again, after
years of using SLR lenses that lack the scales (I'm going to post in a
moment about my recent change to the M6 system).
