Do you see any "Err" messages in the top LCD?

Do you have an alternative release mode set?

Exposure outside maximum parameters?

Try manual focus as part of the process of elimination.

You have an SD card in the camera?

Two-button reset. Check your Mode setting to make sure it isn't set for Timer, or something else inappropriate.

I found this on my D300, may work on yours too: Loose open the lens a little, then turn it close tightly. Once in a while, a loosen lens can cause some crazy error. Since we discuss about the Nikon D7100, when I shot video, the auto focus doesn't work, anyone knows why, and where in the manual that I can read about this issue ? Thanks.
