Ring Canon Eos

Canon EOS Ef-S 18-55mm lens question?

Hi, I own a digital Canon Rebel XS, and I use the stock kit lens (the 18-55mm) and I have a question about the manual focus ring..how the heck do you set it to infinity? Last time I used it was to get long exposure shots and as I mess around with the maunal focus, I think it is in focus..but then the shot comes out partially blurry and just looks terrible. I also make sure at all times I use a tripod.

Also, any tips on manual focusing would be appreciated. I use AF most the time but at night the lens just won’t focus on what I want..and the camera won’t allow me to take the picture.

Thanks!!!
I forgot to add I do a lot of night long exposure shots..I also like to take lightning pictures and just in general storms and landscapes. At night it is hard to find the best focal range in MF! I try to rely on a light but when I think I got it focused it turns out blurry >:P

I keep a small LED flashlight in my camera bag for auto focusing at night. I point the light where I want to focus, auto focus there by pressing the shutter button half way, point the light away and press the button the rest of the way.
