[QUOTE="nikolasdassis, post: 20408, member: 6198"] Hi guys. Listen to me, it is very important, I am also an owner of a D7000 and it also has a problem with focusing. I did many many tests and came to the conclusion that this model has indeed a problem in focusing. After lots and lots of tests where I had it in auto focus and then manually focused, found a much easier way to test if your camera has a problem. First of all you must NOT be in live mode. Have your camera on a tripod, put an 18mm lens on, give it a single point to focus and try the point that you gave her to focus to have almost or smaller size than the focus point in the viewfinder, if you do that you are absolutely ready to test your camera. Press to focus button till the middle and check the ring of your lens as it rotates to get the distance from the subject. When it is finished with the wrong focusing (here the bib) without shooting anything press again and again and again the focus button, you will see every time the distance in the lens changes! So it's a random play if you catch it to focus!!! This is outrageous!!! I also have a D300 and of course there is not such a problem!! It finds the focus point and stays there forever!!! Ok listen to me...... we must all send a message to NIKON to show them how disappointed we are. I have already sent a message to them. If many people send them a message, they will be forced to fix the problem or change our cameras. I don't want a camera for which a payed $1200 not to be as I want it to be! Here is the mail I sent to NIKON "Hi there, I am a very old customer of yours and I have always used Nikon products. I have decided after my D50, my D90 and my D300 to upgrade to a D7000 since in the papers it is a much better camera. My question is the following: I've had this camera about a month now and I am very disappointed! It is impossible for the camera to focus right! This is a very serious problem which I believe is not a firmware problem but a hardware problem. I am considering sending my camera to get serviced, but I really need it and from what I read on the internet and in forums the problem cannot be fixed! It is outrages for your customers and for a product that we payed $1200 not to focus. So the question is, are you going to do something about it? On the internet there are plenty of forums that talk about your broken product!" If many of us message them they will be forced to fix the problem one way or another!!!! [/QUOTE]
