[QUOTE="BackdoorArts, post: 98438, member: 9240"] The D7000 allows you to fine tune each lens, so while one may be spot on with no additional adjustment, others may require a bit of fine tuning to get them tack sharp. Why on the D7000 and not on the D90? Ask Nikon. I have them both and have seen the same things you're seeing. Once adjusted the D7000 has no issues. And for these tests, you don't want to vary the aperture. Follow the instructions in the link that Dave posted. What you're describing when you mention it going from 14mm in the back to 10mm in the front is depth of field. Front and back focus have to do with where the lens focuses at minimum depth of field - is it on the intended spot, in front, or behind. As for the white balance mentioned in the vid, if both were set to "Auto" when you took the images then you're going to get what the camera thinks is right. You're obviously happier with the way the D90 is treating you in this particular context. It's possible to fine tune the auto white balance in the D7000 so it works better in that light. There are also 2 Auto settings, so make sure you don't have it set to "keep warm colors warm" as that may be impacting what you see. [/QUOTE]
