Connecting to a Computer
Data Transfer and Camera Control
The supplied UC-E4 USB cable can be used to connect the camera to a com-
puter. Once the camera is connected, PictureProject can be used to copy
photographs to the computer, where they can be browsed, viewed, and
retouched. The camera can also be used with other applications available
separately from Nikon, including Capture NX, which supports batch process-
ing and more advanced image editing options, and Camera Control Pro,
which 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 (

puter operating system and the software used:
