[QUOTE="zmijasu2k3, post: 57341, member: 9573"] Just thought I would post an update. I dropped off the camera at nikon service. As far as I can tell it will cost me roughly 50 bucks to get it calibrated. Still in "The Shop". I asked they guy at the counter if they see lots of "back focus" problems, he tells me it is common, the focusing needs to be fine tuned. I told that I don't want them to just use the built in Fine Tune functionality of the camera as it is not a true fix because it is per lens. I told him that obviously this is a body issue and I don't want to have to fine tune the body for each lens I have. He said, "this is technology, this is how it works". I basically told him I don't agree with what he is saying. I thought he took personal offense, even though my beef is not with him. Anyway, I hope they fix it properly. I read in some forums that some people, when they got their camera back from service, still had some focus issues but less. I used my old D40 this weekend and it takes much better/sharper pictures than my D7000 did. Amazing that nikon doesn't just do a recall or something. [/QUOTE]
