Nikon D7000 tips

Jeff,

It works well in Live View but not at all when using the viewfinder. Focus lock is not set to 'L'. Maybe a fault on my camera?

Do you have it in a mode that you can move the focus point around with the arrows on the multi switch? If you do it should work. If you have it in an auto mode it won't work, Jeff

Oh yes Jeff, in aperture priority or shutter priority. i move the focus point around with no problem, but it will not re centre, except in Live view. Most odd..

You may or may not want to try this but you can press the two green buttons, one on the bottom left side of the back and the other is top right (EV button) of the camera and hold them down for three or four seconds and this will do a hard reset and make ALL OF THE SETTINGS go back to the factory setting.
. You will have to decide for yourself if it is worth doing. The camera comes being able to get the center point back to center as a default.

I cannot think of any reason that the OK button should not work, but this will tell you if a setting has gotten changed, Jeff
