The Loxia 21 is somewhat known for some field curvature. So if you want the edges/corners sharp at infinity, you have to focus a little past where you would normally focus when using the center of the frame. And you probably don't want to rely on the hard stop as infinity when focusing. To get the most even across the frame sharpness at infinity, with my copy, you have to just pull back a hair from the hard stop.

When I focus my Loxia 21 to infinity it is not as sharp as my Loxia 25. Is it a bad copy or is it normal? (I'm sorry my English is so bad..)

Thank you, I just bought the Loxia 25 and I have to do more tests, I've had the 21 for 4 years and I was satisfied but when I compared it with my new 25 it's when I saw a difference focusing at infinity. When I take only 3 lenses I use 14 GM (I don't have the Voigtlander 15) and Loxia 21 and 35,. Seeing the great performance of the 25, perhaps the combination of the Batis 18 (which I don't have) with Loxia 25 and Sigma 45i is more convenient for me. (The Sigma 45 works well for occasional portraits too)
