as i said sorry to even mention this...
im Not a Camera buff to start with and im just starting to learn and the extra confusion is just something i did not think about...
Plus I dont Text very good so as fast and all the Information that is asked for is just Over me.

its only a isue of not enough focus on the far end of the sx40
Thats All i KNOW and can Say..
it gets better as i step the focus upto the infinity mark then it just dont have no more .
as i said it looks and ACTS like it needs like 3 More steps tward the infinity to be "proper".
