So a couple of months ago I decided to switch from my D90 to a D7000. I was so excited to finally have nice weather out a few days ago so I took my niece to the Bronx Zoo. I took over 300 shots and was about to post a few of them here for you guys, but then.....womp, womp :/

After reviewing the pics on the computer, I was really disappointed. I don't know how I missed this, but the damn thing is back focusing on every shot. It's way, way off and pretty terrible at anything below f/8 on my 35mm lens. Just as bad with the 50mm f/1.8 and the 105mm f/2.8. I kind of noticed it when I first got it, but I honestly thought is was all in my head or user error. It's partially my fault for only looking at the lcd instead of downloading to the computer.

After doing some searching, I found out this isn't all that uncommon. Mine seems to be way out of calibration though and I still can't get it to be reasonably accurate with the AF fine tuning (still oof pushed -20). Thankfully, Nikon's HQ in Melville is about 20 minutes from me.
