Guess I should have been a little more clear...
The lens cannot AF at all at the far end as the aperture cannot open up to f/5.6, but only to f/6.3.
What happens is that when you take a picture with say an f/2.8 lens with the aperture set to f/11 through the camera, the camera AFs with the lens at f/2.8. When you take the picture, it stops down to f/11, then once the shutter closes the aperture reopens to f/2.8.
