  Not quite the same, but putting a Vivitar 17/3.5 on a 7mm extension 
tube, it isn't in focus _anywhere_.

  There's something weird going on, though, because even though it looks 
as if the split-image portion of the screen is matching up, the rest of 
everything is blurry. It's possible that the focal point is inside the 
lens, of course.
