Follow the steps below to fine-tune autofocus. Note that fine-tuning applies only with phase-detection AF (viewfinder AF) and is not available during live view. You may have difficulty focusing at infinity or at the minimum focus distance while fine-tuning is in effect.

Whatever change in lens focus position occurs will be used by auto fine tune to estimate the required fine tune correction and will record it in-camera for that specific. Nov 20, 2019  Auto AF Fine Tune While the Nikon D7500 borrows a lot from the D500, it doesn’t get the same sophisticated 153-point AF system the D500 enjoys. Instead, it gets an uprated version of the 51. Apr 21, 2016 Nikon's automated AF Fine Tune is truly one of the most welcome features we've seen added to a DSLR in recent times. We've wondered for years why camera companies don't use their contrast-detect AF to self-calibrate their phase-detect systems, instead relegating calibration to a cumbersome end-user experience.

My current setup is a Nikon D7200 and the Nikon AF-S 80-400MM F/4.5-5.6G ED VR. Lately I am not happy with the overall images and would like to know if there is a specific way for me to try and use the Autofocus Fine Tuning feature to dial in the gear better. This is the lense I shoot with all the time and almost always shoot at 400mm. I have seen some articles on doing this with a much smaller lense indoors on a tripod but not sure how to go about it with a long zoom lense. Thanks for any info or help on how to do this with my setup.
