Mine goes beyond infinity and I know of no logic for that except that it
works fine. I like Mark Rabiners answer the best though - for when infinity
is just not far enough!

Hi Marc,

  I have seen quite a few other Leica lenses focus of which moves beyond
infinity mark.  They all seemed focus ok though.  So I presumed that it was
normal.

Regards,
David Lee
