Re: Focusing on infinity with Canon STM lens

Set the lens to MF, pick a very distant object,the moon, if visible is ideal, half press the shutter button then turn the focus ring until the image is sharp. One advantage of STM lenses is that once manually set you can’t accidentally change focus by moving the focus ring.
