I have a Nikon D60. I'm new at photography and I want to take very sharp pictures. Most of mine are out of focus when I enlarge them and I don't know what to do about it. Will changing the ISO help??

Okay, what ISO do you set it on to do this???

To do what?

First know your camera, know what you are focusing on, know the depth of field for the f stop, know what shutter speed you need etc, Get Byran Peterson's book on understanding exposure, and practice

D7000 mode dial

Nikon D7000 mode dial does not lock. Any ideas on how to keep it from moving so easly?

Thanks,

That is a big problem, look before you shoot, I also put a piece of heat shrink tubing around the dial (Recommendation on NIKONIANS Website) and it helps because the little knobs on the dial are less likely to be turned by hitting them taking the camera out of the camera bag, by camera strap etc.

Your sigma 70-200 with a 1.4 TC = 280 and the D7100 = 420 now use the 1.3 crop = 546mm

Also remember the D7100 will auto focus at f/8

"P" stands for .......

Well in Nikon if you use P and do not change anything it is like Auto but once you set the scene and the camera adjusts the settings by using the Command &/or Sub-command dials you and adjust either the aperture or the speed and the camera will adjust the other part automatically This is called P* in Nikon
