I never use these.

CUSTOM SETTING MENU

f1 - f7: CONTROLS

How to Get Here

Press MENU, go to the left and select the pencil icon. You'll then see CUSTOM SETTING
MENU on the color LCD. Click down to f CONTROLS and click to the right.

What it Does

These change what some of the buttons and knobs do.

What I Change

I change f1, f4 and f5. I leave the rest alone.

f1 Center Button

lets you select what happens when you press the center of the rear

thumb selector.

You may select different things for shooting and for playback.

In shooting I prefer to have mine select the center AF area.

In playback there is a very clever trick I suggest everyone set:

TRICK: under playback mode, select ZOOM ON/OFF. Now pressing the center of the
selector zooms in. I choose MEDIUM.

TRICK OF TRICKS: Once you set this and use it, you may use the rear dial to flip
through all the shots at the same position and magnification! I do this all the time.

It's great for selecting which shot is sharp or not. Sadly once you use the Delete key
the D200 reverts to non-zoomed mode, so you'll have to zoom and scroll back to the
same spot to continue in-camera editing.
