After almost a year with the D7000, I'm ready to throw in the towel. The photos are not good. In fact, auto sucks on this camera. We end up with many blurry photos of simple action shots and shots with minimal movement. I do believe the "tool" is not working correctly. Our D60 far surpasses the D7000. Why is that?
what probably happens with back and front focus is that people focus on the subject ,than through it on a side for the rule of thirds,and take the pic. than ooooohhh my focus is not right !
I am getting towards a years D7000 use & its an excellent mid range camera.
as the old adage goes a poor workman always blames the tools.
My D7K Is turning out super quality images, they may be not the best composed & I think that is the problem, people expect a more expensive camera to take better pictures.Use right technically it will but it cant compose and some I think get upset because they are still turning out snaps and not master pieces.
Agreed you have to get used to any new camera before getting a fair impression I dont know if i have hot pixels as I just take pictures back focus pocus mine works fine.
only thing I have done is to calibrate my worst lens a tad that took all of 30 minutes.
It has not given me any problems at all and gives results as good as IMO any camera in this format on the market but for me personally in a better built and higher spec unit.
I wish I had seen this video last week and saved myself a few anxious days! I bought my Dk about 10 days ago and went and took some pics. Some of them weren't focused properly. So naturally I started looking into internet forums and read about all these D7ks out there with back focus problems. I flipped out and downloaded and shot every focus chart on the internet at various angles without getting a conclusive ans. Finally I stopped pixel peeping, kept my hands steadier and got better results.
Great Vid... Internet rumors and complaints are crazy!!!
Jared Polin has a video where he says basically the same.thing. It is really brave of you guys departing from the popular rantin, but thanks a lot for a dose of real world to the technology pickyness!
I decided not to buy d7000 due to the low ratings and complaint. From the same site I goto dcfever.com. The 60d, 550d, etc all has above four stars except for the d7000.
I've had the D7000 for 2 months now, and I only experienced hot pixels in a situation, where I really pushed the ISO for video, and it was first after about 5 mins it showed up - and just a few of them. It was my fault - not the camera.
You can always push your equipment to the limit and get "issues" with it...
