As the images are displayed, press the up/down multi selector buttons to change the amount of information presented on the screen with each image. For example, you might want to review a set of images and the settings used to shoot them. At any time during the show, press the up/down buttons until the informational screen you want is overlaid on the images.

As the slide show progresses, you can press the left/right multi selector buttons to move back to a previous frame or jump ahead to the next one. The slide show will then pro- ceed as before. Press the MENU button to exit the slide show and return to the menu, or press the Playback button to exit the menu system totally. As always, while review- ing images you can tap the MENU button to exit the show and return to the menus, or tap the shutter release button if you want to remove everything from the screen and return to shooting mode.

At the end of the slide show, as when you’ve paused it, you’ll be offered the choice of restarting the sequence, changing the frame interval, or exiting the Slide Show feature completely.

Print Set (DPOF)

The Nikon D7000 supports the DPOF (Digital Print Order Format) that is now almost universally used by digital cameras to specify which images on your memory card should be printed, and the number of prints desired of each image. This information is recorded on the memory card and can be interpreted by a compatible printer when the camera is linked to the printer using the USB cable, or when the memory card is inserted into a card reader slot on the printer itself. Photo labs are also equipped to read this data and make prints when you supply your memory card to them.

When you choose this menu item, you’re presented with a set of screens that look very much like the Delete Photos screens described earlier, only you’re selecting pictures for printing rather than deleting them. The button sequences are slightly different, however:

1.Use the multi selector cursor keys to scroll among the available images.

2.When you highlight an image you might want to print, press the Playback Zoom In button to temporarily enlarge that image so you can evaluate it further. When you release the button, the selection screen returns.

3.To mark an image for printing, press and hold the Thumbnail/Zoom Out button while pressing the multi selector up buttons to choose the number of prints you want, up to 99 per image. To deselect an image, hold the Thumbnail/Zoom Out button while pressing the multi selector down button. A printer icon and the num- ber specified will appear overlaid on that image’s thumbnail.
