Default Problem with Nikon D70s, 70-300 focusing!

Hi Nikonians,

Yesterday I was trying to get a glimpz of sunset at punngol beach!

With setting at manual mode, I usually play with the command dial(joystick??), to set the focus either at the center/left/right or top(by seein at the viewfinder) - based on the subjects location.

But yday,I found the focus setting in the viewfinder stuck at the left side, and not changing when I use the joystick... how to reset this functionality??

Please help...and will be highly appreciated!

look for the "L" switch at the back of ur cam...switch it to the dot (one that can change focus point)
Switching it back to "L" position locks the focus point.

the "left right up down" button beside the lcd is LOCKED

there is the "L" and "."..... unlock it and use the "left right up down" button to move the focusing point back to the second lor

try reading the manual, it is inside also...

if cannot find let me know, i find the online version and tell you which page

No problem, normally for people who make mistakes, we punish them by making them post a lot a lot a lot a lot of photos
