[QUOTE="NIKONIAN_DREAMWEAVER, post: 398155, member: 36003"] My D7100 and all my lenses focus perfectly. I've never needed to do any "fine tuning". I've got Tamron's 90mm f/2.8 VC macro, and 70-200mm VC f2.8, Nikon's 35mm f1.8, and 18-105mm. They all focus perfectly. Remember, auto-focus is not perfect. Even check the Nikon D7100 manual on page 72; "[B]Getting good results with auto-focus[/B]". There are quite a few scenarios where auto-focus will not perform well. I would say your experience is not 'typical' for Nikon. See if you can get a brand-new 35mm Nikon lens. It sounds like you might have gotten a lemon there. I don't buy Sigma at all. Too many horror stories with compatibility/poor quality. I love Tamron's, but I only buy within the Pro-lens line ([B]SP[/B]). That said, if all your lenses are requiring fine-tuning, then I would say your D7100 is probably out of whack. [/QUOTE]
