Once the camera is connected, the supplied software can be used to copy pho-
tographs to the computer, where they can be browsed, viewed, and retouched.
The camera can also be used with Nikon Capture 4 Version 4.4 or later (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

tem requirements. To ensure that data transfer is not interrupted, be sure the

an EH-6 AC adapter (available separately).
Before connecting the camera, set the USB option in
the setup menu ( 121) according to the computer
operating system and whether the camera is being
controlled from Nikon Capture 4 Version 4.4 or later

ferred to the computer using the supplied software:
