Viewing Pictures on a Computer
Using the UC-E1 USB cable and Nikon View software provided with your
camera, you can view pictures on a computer. Before pictures can be trans-

mation on installing Nikon View and transferring pictures to your computer,
see the Nikon View Reference Manual (on CD-ROM) and the reverse side of
the Quick Start Guide.
