would prefer to see the next picture. However, if you feel
differently, one of the next two settings may appeal to you.
Show previous – If you delete the first image on the memory
card, the camera will display the next image. If you delete an
image somewhere in the middle or at the end of the memory
card, the previous image will be displayed.
Continue as before – This weird little setting shows the
flexibility of computerized camera technology in all its glory.
If you are scrolling to the right (the order in which the images
were taken) and decide to delete an image, the camera uses
the Show next method listed above to display the next image.
Since the computer in your D300(S) is aware of the direction
in which you are scrolling, if you happen to be scrolling to the
left (opposite from the order in which the images were taken)
when you decide to delete a picture, the camera will use the
Show previous method instead.
Here are the steps to choose an After delete setting (see
Figure 2-26):
1. Choose After delete from the Playback Menu and scroll
to the right.
2. Select one of the three settings from the After delete
screen.
3. Press the OK button.
My Recommendation: When I delete an image, I’m not
overly concerned about which image shows next—most of
the time. However, certain styles of shooting and deleting
rejects can certainly use this functionality.
