[QUOTE="Joseph Bautsch, post: 32306, member: 654"] The AF light is only an aid to focusing in low light but not a absolute answer. This low light focusing "limitation" is found in all TTL focusing systems regardless of the make or model. As I stated above it has to do more with subject contrast than anything else. In this case you may need to have the focusing system realigned by Nikon or a Nikon repair shop. Unfortunately I've read a lot about focusing problems with the D7000. I don't know that the AF system in the D300s or the D700 is any more robust. Changing to those models may solve your problem only because Nikon is not having the same AF technical problems as with the D7000. The majority of these models being sold by Nikon are fine and are great cameras. But a few seem to be getting through their quality control needing this adjustment. [/QUOTE]
