Opening Images in Another Application
The images can be opened in the associated application either
by double-clicking the image icon or by selecting Open from
the Finder’s File menu. Images can also be opened directly
from any application that supports the file formats used by the
camera.
Note: TIFF-YCbCr image files are different from normal TIFF
image files. If you would like to work with TIFF-YCbCr image files,
check that the application software you are using supports this
type of image files. These images can be opened in Adobe
Photoshop version 4.0 or later if you have installed a plug-in for
TIFF-YCbCr format image files. Nikon Capture (sold separately)
is required to work with NEF files containing raw image data from
the camera’s CCD.
Opening selected images from the image folder
Select the images you wish to open by clicking their icons
(multiple images can be selected by holding down the shift key
while clicking each image in turn), then double-click any of the
selected thumbnails or choose Open from the File menu.
The application will start and the selected images will be
opened in windows within the application.
Tip
The application used to open camera image files is that selected in the
Nikon View Control window when the camera was mounted. If Nikon View
Browser is selected, images will be displayed at full size in the browser’s
built-in viewer. For details, see “Nikon View Browser: Viewing Images with the
Built-in Viewer.” If another application is selected, images will be opened in
the selected application. If the specified application is not installed when
you attempt to open an image, a dialog will appear prompting you to choose
the application to be used. Choose a suitable application from the dialog
box.
