Dear hogs, I am very eager to know what and How to set Back Button Focusing in d7000. In an article I read that it is quit convenient and easy to take tack sharp fotos. I don't know how far it is true, because I don't know anything about this. Please give me a hand regarding this. Thank u all.

The guy in the video explains how to assign the BB to that button, but he doesn't tell you to go into the menu and turn focus off of the shutter button. For BBF to be effective, you must turn off the focus on the shutter button. As far as his statement goes about the subject being in focus for the camera to trip the shutter, this is also a menu choice where you can turn off the setting for the camera to be in perfect focus before allowing a shutter actuation. It's so annoying to try to take a picture and you press the shutter and nothing happens. I'd rather be in control than have the camera act like it's malfunctioning. So change those settings too. One other thing you will want to consider when using BBF is to put your focus settings into "continuous" focus. So that it is focusing all the time the BBF button is pressed, and then stops focusing when it's released. You do not want it to be in "one shot" mode so that it focuses, then stops focusing when it achieves the focus. You will want to be in full control of when it focuses and when it does not focus. This is the whole point of BBF.
