Setting camera drive options
The following options are available:
• if the Create Thumbnails box is checked, thumbnail
previews of the image files in the camera’s memory card
will be created when the camera is first connected as a
drive.
• the application used to open photographs (the default is
the built-in viewer in Nikon View Browser)
• alternate drives, mounting card readers or PCMCIA card
adapters in place of the camera
PowerBook users who have connected the camera to the printer/exter-
nal modem port should turn AppleTalk off and then select Modem Port in
the Port option.
Depending on your set-up, auto data-rate detection may not perform as
expected. Should you experience problems reading the data stored in the
camera, select a new speed in the CoolPix panel. If you still experience
difficulties at the highest available rate, choose successively lower speeds
until you find one that works.
