It covers resetting the camera when checked out, formatting the XQD card safely, and initial preparation steps such as adjusting the viewfinder diopter, charging the battery, selecting ISO ranges for indoor/night versus outdoor use, setting white balance, and configuring autofocus modes and focus area. It also explains core exposure settings using ISO, aperture, and shutter speed, emphasizing avoiding blur by keeping shutter speed above 1/100 and using continuous shooting and appropriate JPG/RAW quality settings.",{"@graph":63,"@context":112},[64,80,95],{"@type":65,"itemListElement":66},"BreadcrumbList",[67,71,74,77],{"item":68,"name":69,"@type":70,"position":9},"https://docshare.wps.com","Home","ListItem",{"item":72,"name":10,"@type":70,"position":73},"https://docshare.wps.com/template/",2,{"item":75,"name":26,"@type":70,"position":76},"https://docshare.wps.com/template/posters/",3,{"item":78,"name":59,"@type":70,"position":79},"https://docshare.wps.com/template/nikon-z6-z7-cheat-sheet-basics-reset-and-getting-started/572959/",4,{"url":78,"name":59,"@type":81,"author":82,"headline":59,"publisher":85,"fileFormat":88,"inLanguage":57,"description":61,"dateModified":89,"datePublished":89,"encodingFormat":88,"isAccessibleForFree":90,"interactionStatistic":91},"DigitalDocument",{"name":83,"@type":84},"nayy☆","Person",{"url":68,"name":86,"@type":87},"DocShare","Organization","application/pdf","2026-10-13",true,{"@type":92,"interactionType":93,"userInteractionCount":4},"InteractionCounter",{"@type":94},"ViewAction",{"@type":96,"mainEntity":97},"FAQPage",[98,104,108],{"name":99,"@type":100,"acceptedAnswer":101},"How do you reset the Nikon Z6/Z7 after checking it out?","Question",{"text":102,"@type":103},"Press the menu button, use the rocker pad to open “Reset photo shooting” and “Reset Custom settings,” then reset and press OK for each.","Answer",{"name":105,"@type":100,"acceptedAnswer":106},"What precautions should you take before formatting an XQD card?",{"text":107,"@type":103},"Formatting deletes everything on the card, so confirm images are copied to a computer storage device first.

The cameras functions and design are identical. The Z6 is available at Media Tech. The Z6 & Z7 are also available on a limited basis with permission  \nthrough the College’s equipment room.  \n•Reset the Camera each time you sign it out (This way you will know exactly how the camera is operating- instead of relying on the kindness of strangers.)  \n• Press the menu button. Use the rocker pad to access the‘Reset photo shooting’and‘Reset Custom settings’menus. Reset and press ok for each.  \n•Format the XQD card  \n•Formatting the XQD card deletes everything on the card. Don’t format until you are sure you have copied your images to a computer storage device. Format before every shoot.  \n• Press the menu button. Use the rocker made to scroll to the wrench icon. Select Format memory card. Press OK then Yes to format the card and delete all the contents.  \n•Getting Started  \n• Adjust the viewﬁnder using the diopter knob on the side of the camera for your eyesight.  \n• Make sure the battery is fully charged.  \nset ISO:  \n• Shooting inside or at night set ISO 800-12,800 (higher ISO’s lower image quality)  \n• Shooting outside set ISO 100-800 (as low as ISO 64 on the Z7)  \n• Set White balance to the proper setting (use auto if you’re not sure)  \n• Turn on autofocus on the lens. The AF button is on the side of camera  \n• Use the camera’s ‘i’ key to access the AF settings. Select either AF-S or AF-C and then the focus area you prefer.  \n• You can move the center focus point by using the rocker pad on the camera back or by touching the screen.  \n• Set the camera mode dial, top left, to “M”  \n• Set a proper exposure by adjusting ISO, aperture and shutter speed. Use the exposure meter bar as a guide.  \n• Remember that slow shutter speeds = blurry photos. Keep your shutter speed above 1/100 of a second  \n• Set Camera to continuous shooting  \n• Set Quality to JPG Fine* or use RAW and size to “L”  \n** Make sure you are shooting at high enough shutter speeds so your images aren’t blurry**  \nDonald P.
