Really ka?? So sharp? I can see very obvious difference between D7000 and D5000 when taking portraits eh, the face tends to be very soft, I suspect out of focus, I should go back Nikon to calibrate it? How to do it?

I shooting at F2.8, still very soft.... not close to sharp at all, I don feel exited n happy after getting this coz not as sharp as old D5000 at iso200, my gf oso can see very soft I suspect wat pengster said might be right, calibration prob?

Added on November 15, 2010, 9:38 amU r right!! The D7000 has more saturated colors(a bit too fake) even at Standard settings! CY how u find the images at iso200? Can share a bit, I dunno wat's wrong, who can help me.....

Added on November 15, 2010, 9:44 amI bought at 3.9 k, initially I was told 3.8k, but the boss of my fren's shop insisted to sell at least of RM100 margin to me coz very limited stock now..... All shop have +/- 3 units only, my fren told me to wait, but they dunno when is the next shipment, might be few weeks to 1 month, scared of ending up no body for christmass, haha..... So if u guys can find cheaper than 3.9k, pls grab it while u can......

Thanks~
I also heard from the a shop making claims that other shop selling cheaper could be giving non-genuine battery. Any idea? I think it's possible but I'm not sure, if they do that, if Nikon Malaysia found out they will be in trouble right?
I think better if we check on the battery if possible.

Imageshack also can. Flickr also can.

Price for Nikon D7000 in SG,

http://ddelectronics.com.sg/categories/Dig...LR/Nikon-D7000/

Looks front focus 2mm. Then again, when you compare against the D5000 did you use single point AF or using all the AF points (ala area mode).

I seldom use area mode, I mostly choose single point n focus on eyes, this D7000 looks like the face being photoshop, lol..... the face looks so smooth, haha... being blurred

Can I know how is the process of having my D7000 calibrated? Nikon BTS do this? Need my warranty card and stuff? Will they need chop and date for my warranty card? I don want the card to be filled

Weird, my friend's D7000 is sharp even when using the 18-105. When fitting on my 70200 and 85 really killer! Damn love the focusing speed as well.

Haaiz.... really ka?? Then I felt much better, means is my cam prob, not D7000 prob which can't be save..... I really love the focusing speed!!

Haven't tried much on the D7000. But I like the base 100 ISO. Good for prime lens to shoot at f/1.4

Was trying out my 85mm outdoor, 200 ISO 1/4000 still overexposed . Damn.

IIRC, the card need to be filled to send it for calibration

I called, they said just need receipt, i say my card is unfilled, they said the wont touch it, hope so la..... haha

eh ? Weird. But good for you

I go try see how 1st, lol..... hope wat they say is true =p

Once you sent in the camera and their system have your serial number, the card fill or not fill doesn't make much different....
