wah... hope nikkor 24-70 VR come out after this..

Doesn't seems to have IS on the 24-70mm version II.

But on the other hand, Tamron recently announce their 24-70mm equivalent/alternative which comes with VC.

The IS lenses are Canon EF 24mm f/2.8 IS USM / EF 28mm f/2.8 IS USM
doesn't seem practical at all.

I'll be hunting for used D3s in the market

canon new 24-70 where got IS?
just updated optics, afterall its about 8yrs since.

nikon 24-70 no need updating

It's an exciting time for photographers hahaa. Nikon Canon Olympus Fuji all have new cameras. Money No Enough arr

Would like to know if any D7000 users here faced back-focusing issue before and how did you fix it?
Noticed the problem occurred when aperture is wide open. I am using kit lens

never had.
and u can use the D7000 AF fine tune.

Check if it's the lens problem or body problem.

BUT before that, what kind of back-focus are you facing? If you focusing on the subject, and the camera focus on the background, it can be a different issue...

Anyone had experience sending lens for service in Nikon HQ in menara PKNS?

want to send mine, cause the zoom ring is stuck (few pages back) and the Nikon person (Mahfooz) asks me yo send for checkup..

How long foes it take, and how much does they quote for the fee?

Yes, that's exactly what I'm facing. Background looks sharp instead of my subject.

try the af fine tune of your d7000

Before that print out something with alot of lines to use as your subject and slowly take your time and fine tune it

Yes, I would not mind a 2nd hand D3X too.

24Mp is already stunning for me.

Why stop at 16-35mm f/4? Go for 14-24mm f/2.8.

Yes, the 14-24mm f/2.8 is that awesome to use. One of my favourites actually.

Nice link.

Does it happen when you use tele or wide angle on the kit lens? In what type of conditions does it happen? Low light?

Wah... How did you manage to get Mahfooz on the phone? If I'm not wrong, he's a high ranking big gun in Nikon handling NPS section.

Anyway, to get Nikon SC to check your lens, they charge you RM 20 on which can be deducted from the repair cost later on.

How long? Lucky will be 2 weeks. Unlucky? 2 or 3 months?

BTW, you can check status of our repair online after receiving the work order number.

Is this what you face?

"If the main subject in the focus brackets is relatively small, such as a person standing in front of a distant background. This may result in the background being in focus, while the subject is out of focus. This is more likely to occur when a wide angle lens is used."

From my experience, the actual "focus point" is bigger than the "box", so it always tends to focus on the background or something more contrast.
