You could find it at the left side just under your lens where you can change the AF or MF. Press the button along with your shutter speed dial to change whatever preference you like. Just thought this to one of my friends that got his d7k last week biggrin.gif

For D7000, there's a button on the A/M Focus Mode Selector, press the button and rotate the Main Dial at the same time to switch in between modes smile.gif

Not necessary need to buy, just download the Nikon D7000 manual jau ok la tongue.gif laugh.gif

now i confuse, is he asking the af mode? such as matrix, center weight etc?
if so, then on D90 the button near the on/off button, same as D7000 nid to rotate the main dial..
btw, D7000 change to btm there..wont it be hard to change?

Attached the MB-D11 bg to the D7000 body. Hmm... it seems to be solid built, however the rubber is way different feeling than the D7000's. It's like some cheapo rubber on the bg vs some quality rubber on the body laugh.gif

And yes... it does feel like not attached tightly as it still can move very slightly giving you that kind of "feeling" where the body is moving on the bg.

hmm...i find the rubber on the bg better...cos can feel the rubbery friction grip etc.

No, he's asking for AF mode but not Metering mode. AF mode is where you set the mode of Auto-Focus of how many focus points you wanted to use smile.gif

Used to do this, but couple of times I accidentally changed the ISO doh.gif So currently disabled it already lol.

On D700 not an issue cause the button is on top instead of beside the LCD.

Bounce Card is not as flexible as Demb Flash Diffuser Pro. You can check out the website for tutorial on the product, there're may ways you can use the product to direct your lights and let's you create more creative lightings.

Personally, I have haven't got it, but planning to and try it out.
Thanks for the tips!
For LR, when you load the NEF files, it does apply some "preset" settings based on camera model, but it can be turn off.
Do you use noise reduction in the software? Or just leave the noise alone;

Love your shots, especially the 135mm f/2; Damm.....

You mean can be turned off by going to :
edit > preferences > presets > "apply auto tone adjustments" ?

I've done that but i still feel the RAW shots loaded into my LR is not the same look+color as what i shoot in the camera. hmm.gif
I didnt set any presets (selected None) when i import the pictures into library. But the pic still looks a bit diff than in camera, they look overexposed.
How can I make them look exactly as in the camera? And how to create a preset that makes it look the same as in camera?
Is brightness +50, contrast +25 the same as camera?

Of course it wouldn't be same as what you shot in the camera. In the camera, its preview with "Picture Control" applied. Actual RAW file is without any adjustment applied. But as jchue mention, if you load the RAW file in ViewNX or CaptureNX, it's able to apply those presets you applied in your camera; AFAIK, LR doesn't have those preset values, thus, it applied the general value.

I did googled around before, there was some Nikon preset, but I didn't really go and find out more. You can try finding Nikon preset for LR? Or anybody have any information about this?
As I usually PP, so I didn't really bother about these preset;
Maybe you can also try PP the RAW file to look like the JPEG output result, and then try to enhance it further?

Actually, there's an option where you can choose Nikon Standard, Nikon Vivid, Nikon Portrait etc. Its on the develop tab, scroll down you should see it.

It will look similar, but not 100%. Adobe just try to mimic Nikon's processing only. If your Picture Control you did something like reduce saturation etc, then you need to do trial and error.

If you shoot RAW, its easy to get consistent color and white balance smile.gif

The setting will be close, Nikon doesn't reveal their image processing to third party company like Adobe.
