Image Rotation
By default, the D70S records camera orientation
with each photograph taken. This allows “tall”
(portrait) orientation photographs to be displayed
in the correct orientation when played back on
the camera or viewed using Nikon Capture 4
version 4.2 or later (available separately) or Pic-
tureProject. If desired, this feature can be turned
off while taking photographs with the lens pointed up or down, when the
camera may fail to record the correct orientation. Highlight Image rotation
in the setup menu (
155) and press the multi selector to the right. Press
the multi selector up or down to highlight the desired option, then press the
multi selector to the right.

pointing down.
