I thank each one of you that has responded to my post !! This is a very helpful group !!!
Bill, that video did it for me !! Very simple, but I swear I don't think this very basic setting is in the book. Even in the index, you would think that you would find an "ISO setting" entry, but there is none. I do plan to watch the full video that follows, which is the top 5 settings to change in the D7200.
I also found the answer to my Question # 1, about the image appearing automatically.
SO, I have made some advancements this morning already !! Thanks !!
I joined this nice group several weeks ago, and have been reading/ learning a lot. I am a novice to photography, and wish to advance my skills and knowledge.
My wife has a Nikon D3100 and loves it because of its simplicity (relatively speaking). I do know enough to teach her to primarily use Aperture Priority mode, and she really does pretty good ! She finds that in most cases, she can get better results in low light (up to a point of course) using existing light rather than using the flash.
As for me, I just got a Nikon D7200, and I have two initial questions.
Question 1: How can I get a picture that I have just taken to automatically appear on the view screen ? On the D3100, when my wife takes a picture, it instantly appears on the view screen, but for me (D7200) I have to press the view button every time I take a picture. I have looked and looked at the menu items and also in my after market book on this camera, but cannot find how to set this.
Question 2: This one I am embarrassed to ask, as it should be easy to find in the menu ,or the book. For the life of me, I cannot see where/how to set the ISO on the D7200. Once again, I have looked and looked at the menu items and also in my after market manual for this camera, but cannot find how to set the ISO.

Now you all can readily see why I admitted up front that I was a novice.
Thanks !!
