In the first few chapters of this book, I covered how to change the main settings of your D700. In this chapter, I go more in depth into the menu options. Here you can custom-tailor the D700 options to fit your shooting style, to help refine your workflow, or to make adjustments to refine the camera settings to fit different shooting scenarios.
The D700 is one of the most customizable cameras on the market. You can assign a number of buttons to the functions you find yourself using a lot. Using the My Menu feature, you can create your own personal list of menu options so that you don't have to scroll through all the menu options to get to those you access most frequently.
Some of these options are the same as the ones you can access and adjust by pushing a button and/or rotating a command dial. However, most are to change things that you don't need to change very often or quickly.
You access the menus by pressing the Menu button on the back of the camera. Use the Multi-selector to scroll through the toolbar on the right side of the LCD screen. When the desired menu is highlighted in yellow, press the OK button or Multi-selector right to enter the menu. Pressing the Menu button again or tapping the Shutter Release button exits the Menu mode screen and readies the camera for shooting.
