Here's a stupid question, but I've got to know: Can lenses, as they get older, lose their focusing ability? Case in point is my daily shooter, a Nikon FE with a Nikor 50mm f/1.4. While looking through the viewfinder, everything looks in focus. When I process my film, I come to learn that the focus is off. A few examples:
This was shot a moderate aperture, around f/5.6 (I think..my notebook's in the car and I'm too lazy to get it) on Adox ART 25. Focus was on infinity. or there abouts. Clear and in-focus in the viewfinder.
Similar situation. Adox 25, f/5.6ish, focus on infinity.
What gives?:scratch:
