Getting Connected: Connecting to Your Computer
Once you have installed Nikon View, you are ready to transfer pictures
and movies to your computer. Images can be transferred either via a
direct USB connection between the camera and computer, or by
removing the memory card from the camera and inserting it in a card
reader or PC card slot.
Direct Connection: Connecting Your Camera by Cable
If your computer is equipped with a built-in USB interface, you can connect the
camera and computer using the UC-E1 USB cable provided with your camera. If
your computer does not have a built-in USB connection, you can transfer images
using a card reader or PC card slot (see following section).
1 Turn the computer on
• Turn the computer on and wait for the operating system to start up.
2 Select the images to be transferred
• After removing lens cap and turning the mode dial to p, turn the camera on
and press the 7 button to display a page of thumbnail images (p. 162).
Check that the images you want to transfer are marked with a D icon. To
select unmarked pictures for transfer or to deselect pictures already marked
for transfer, highlight the picture and press the TRANSFER button. To select all
images for transfer, select “All On” in the playback “Transfer” menu (p. 174).
Note on Connecting to Your Computer
When the camera is connected to the computer and camera is turned on, the
lens extends out. Make sure to remove the lens cap of the camera before
connecting the camera to the computer.
“Hot Plug”
The USB interface supports “hot plug” connection of peripheral devices. This
means that the camera can be on or off when you connect it to the computer.
Note however that the procedure detailed in “Disconnecting the camera”
(p. 184) must be followed when disconnecting the USB interface cable.
