If I wanted infinity focus it would have been easy enough to achieve 
using the moon.  But what I wanted to capture was from about 50 feet on 
out to infinity.  Even so, my DoF calculator tells me that at 14mm and 
f/5.6 on the E-M5, even focused on infinity I'd still get down to 7 feet 
in focus even using a stringent 60 lines/mm for the CoC.  But I didn't 
know that at the time I was making the shot.
