[QUOTE="poisonborz, post: 502372, member: 40960"] I received my kit a few days ago, and after fumbling around with it, I recognized I can't get it to autofocus. Not only does it no AF but the AF sleect button on the side is also not working. [LIST] [*]Flip above the backside dial is [B]not[/B] on Locked position [*]Focus switch is on [B]AF[/B] (both on body and lens) [*]When half-pressing the shutter / pressing AF-On (bound to AE-L) a single focus point is visible, red led lights up in the viewfinder but that's all, shots remain unfocused. [*]I've tried to take on-off the lens several times. Both with a fixed 35mm Nikkor, and a 55-300mm Nikkor. The latter has VR that is clicking while half-pressing the shutter - so the body does communicate with the lens I suppose. [*]Below are my settings. Battery is charged well and obviously the camera is on. I've tried to reset any user settings (there's no actual factory reset on the D7200) [/LIST] As I said, AF mode button does nothing, in any mode. Focus-related settings as shown in the manual are not present, it's as if AF would be disabled somehow - as if the camera wouldn't think it can control lens focus, thus has this disabled. Is there something I could try before returning it? [ATTACH=CONFIG]184372._xfImport[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
