[QUOTE="Vrmonster, post: 36028, member: 8095"] Hi All, I'm a brand spankin newbie...both to this site, and to DSLRs. I'm enjoying getting to know my D7000, but have a problem, and I know all you nikonites can help me! I want to shoot some night photos, but the lens that came with my kit (18 - 105mm) does not have an infinity symbol indicator...sooooo, is there any way quick relatively painless way possible to set/lock my lens to infinity at night? Assume I have nothing in the distance to focus on....no light, nothing, its just me and the stars...is it possible to manually set it? Or, do I have to try to AF during the day, switch to manual and leave it til dark??? Just can't seem to find any consistent/good answers to this question on the web. I kept trying the other night and just kept getting 'job nr' flashing....What would be the ideal settings (aperture, f stop, exposure time, iso, etc.)? Thanks! [/QUOTE]
