The D7100 has an extensive, yet sensibly arranged menu system that will look very familiar users upgrading from the D7000. By default, menu navigation is accomplished using the multi selector, though you can also configure the camera's front and rear dials to move among options as well. Pressing the camera's external help button will pop-up explanatory text describing the currently selected option.
 |
The D7100's menu system is divided into six main categories. The contents of each category are displayed in a page-driven interface. Menu display is sticky, meaning that whether you exit the menu system or turn off the camera, pressing the Menu button returns you to the primary menu option you last visited. |

In the playback menu you can delete, copy and rotate images, as well as specify the information that is displayed during image review.
