Nikon D7100 - Bugs?
Hi,
today when I turned on my Nikon D7100 it was reset to factory settings. I have no Idea how this happened. To reset to factory settings I have to hold down the ISO-button and the Exposure Compensation-butten at the same time for 2 seconds. I have definitely not done this. There must be a bug. It sucks, since I had a lot of custom settings.

Then there is another issue. The camera of course was reset to english language. I tried to change it back to my langusge which is norwegian, but now this is not possible :confused: The only possible languages are English and Chinese.

I tried just now to upgrade to the latest firmware, but it did not resolve the language-issue. Still I can only choose between English and Chinese.

I have not gone through the whole menu, so I don´t know if there are other issues. I suspect a software bug.

Any suggestions?

Øyvind,

I haven't seen this on my D-7100, which I bought new in Feb. 2014. You might want to ask about this on the D-7100 forum at the Nikon site. I'm using the Nikon USA pages: Here's the link for the D7100. Click on the Forum tab.

I hope this helps, and please let us know what you find.

Thanks for your reply. Could not solve the issue, so the camera is sent in for service.

Sad that you couldn't find a fix for this. :frown: I hope it doesn't take too long for Nikon to fix it. So far, my 7100 is fine, but I'll sure keep an eye on it.
