I just bought a 35mm f/2 and have focus issues especially on close portraits (about 0.7-1 meter) witch is my main goal for this lens. Anyone know if i can calibrate this lens or any other solution? Other lenses are performing very good Thanks

Anybody has the same lens/camera setup? Is this hard/expensive to adjust? Is this general problem or just OP has this problem?
