Hello Elias,
Take two similar shots of a distant subject with the lens wide open - one
with focus on your ground glass, one with your distance scale. Which one's
sharper? You can also run a more comprehensive focusing test, like the one
described here: http://photo.net/learn/focustest/
Cheers,
Petr

While testing focus I noticed that what's in focus on my ground glass
doesn't seem to jive with what my distance scale says - it may just
be my lack of practice with meters. Things that are much further away
than 20m are out of focus at infinity. What should I believe, the
ground glass or the scale?
Thanks,
Elias
