Nikon D7100 Manual

CHAPTER

Exploring the
Nikon D7100
T
his chapter covers the key components of the D7100 — the buttons, switches,
dials, and knobs. These are the features you will need to master because you will
be using them all the time to modify settings in order to adapt to changing shooting
conditions.
The D7100 is very similar to its precursor, the D7000, and also very similar to its FX
sibling, the D600. If you’re upgrading from the D7000 or you purchased the D7100 as
an adjunct to the D600, you’ll feel right at home. If you’re stepping up from a D5100 or
a D3200, the number of controls may surprise you. If you are accustomed to using
one of Nikon’s compact pro bodies, such as the D300s, D700, or D800, then you will
de nitely notice the difference in the control layout.
Getting to know all your camera’s menus, buttons, and dials allows you to capture your
images just as you envision them.
