Unsurprisingly when pointed at a boring sky or blank wall mine doesn't focus at infinity.
I know it focuses at infinity when used in the great wide open with enough contrast for the AF.
Just out of interest I tried the 17-70 too and that of course also didn't focus on blankness either.
As I said before I can't imagine why you would want to focus on a plain blue sky or cream wall anyway - unless you are checking for sensor stains that is.

Actually, I use my sigma 10-20 almost exclusively on MF and hard focused to infinity

Oops, actually they have a infinity hard stop which the 18-135 does not

BTW, the comparison is made from the last page of the review by adding the other two camera and looking at the bars.
Someone removed the link I posted to that review (Duh!)

I wonder if others can confirm /refute what John said above.
It can focus on clouds, but if the sky is completely blue it won't focus.
Similarly, won't focus on a uniformly cream coloured wall 6-7 feet away.
Otherwise, I can't fault the lens.
