I think I mean back focus

Well I've never seen a convincing front focus problem before. The first 2 really look like they are focused to far back. I need the 100% view to see the problem   I'd get a soft toy (teddy bear)...

Is it possible that the camera was never profiled. As far as I know many cameras, say all Panasonics, are un profiled

Might be D300 or D700. But he doesn't have a D7000

Basically the camera manafacturers lie about iso on DSLRs. They do this as most consumers fall for it. They look at the D90 output on DPreview at iso 1600 and say that the noise is really low. Well...

He changed to manual focus on the lens. It needs to be set on the body.Well thats how I do long exposures and they work   No I'm wrong my D90 will take an out of focus shot with the lens in manual...

Better than I hoped for....   In case you've not seen it. Gitler waits for his D7000 to ship   http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gRzcCYSg_vA

I think that the problem here is DPreview. Are they trying to get bigger in the field of consumer reviews.   I have no problem with the OP. I just think these reviews shouldn't show up in threads

WOW you size wise     I'd take a better range kit lens over a few more pixels any day. The 18-105 should keep you going for ever or at least until you know what you want from a lens. All at...

I shouldn't really be allowed on here as I'm a cheap skate who is dazzled by the latest   I went through a lower budget version of this decision but in the end the 90 displaced the D5xxx an D3xxx...

Now if the D7100 has some feature that you really desire then fine. But the D7000 or even a D90 will still be a hell of an upgrade. One that will need less waiting and not really make much...

No you will see no difference at all. Some people some where may have thought of a way of finding the difference via a detailed test. But you are all would never actually see a difference staring...

I think it would be best to leave more money for lenses or flashes or software. You pay a large premium for the latest. So yes D7000 but even D90 D5100. But do look through the view finder. The D90...

So ADL doesn't really offer anything for the RAW shooter..

Sorry I was replying to Craig   Why what does ADL do if you are shooting RAW?

Not owned the lens but the logic is sound. You'll be able to hand hold the lens at lower speeds than that

When you use ACR do you use "Camera Landscape" as the camera profile. I think it gives a good starting point forlandscapes

:-D

In reality we a have al the resolution need and probably have since 12Mp or 16Mp. The difference is really about depth of field control which will be visible on prints of any size or even small web...

Its possible CNX is better able to read the white balance from the camera At the risk of teaching grandma to suck eggs two ways to set white balance post capture 1. In acr click on the eye dropper...
