Data Transfer and Camera Control
The supplied UC-E4 USB cable can be used to connect the camera to a
computer. Once the camera is connected, the supplied software can be
used to copy photographs to the computer, where they can be browsed,
viewed, and retouched. The camera can also be used with Nikon Capture 4
(available separately), which supports batch processing and more advanced
image editing options and can be used to control the camera directly from
the computer.
Before Connecting the Camera
Install the necessary software after reading the manuals and reviewing the
system requirements. To ensure that data transfer is not interrupted, be sure
the camera battery is fully charged. If in doubt, charge the battery before use
or use an EH-6 AC adapter (available separately).
Before connecting the camera, set the USB option
in the setup menu ( 206) according to the com-
puter operating system and whether the camera
is being controlled from Nikon Capture 4 Camera
