Nikon View Control Settings

You can make changes to the following settings:

•If the Create Thumbnails box is checked, thumbnail previews of the images in the camera will be created when the camera is first connected as a drive. When you open the Image Folder in the Nikon D1 camera drive, image files are displayed as thumbnail icons. These thumbnails will be displayed in Nikon View Browser, and in the Open dialog box when viewing files on the Nikon D1 camera drive.

•You can select the viewer application that will be used for displaying the images recorded by the camera full size (the default setting is Nikon View Browser). Nikon Electronic Image Format (NEF) files containing raw data from the camera’s CCD can only be viewed using Nikon Capture (sold separately).

•Nikon View can be used to mount PC cards.

Details on these settings may be found in the following section, “Camera Drive Settings.”

After making changes to settings, close the dialog box.

Note: If you are mounting the camera using the settings in effect in the previous session, you do not need to open the Nikon View Control window. If you change settings while the camera is mounted, these changes will be applied next time you mount the camera.

3 If the camera is connected as described in the documenta- tion provided with your computer and camera, it will be mounted automatically if:

•The computer is running

•The camera is on

•The camera is not in sleep mode (half-pressing the shut- ter-release button will end sleep mode)

•A compact flash-memory card is inserted into the camera

•The camera is in “PC” mode

When the camera is mounted, the Nikon DI icon will appear at the right side of the desktop, together with the icons for other drives such as the start-up disk.

✔Caution: Do not disconnect the camera while data are being transferred to or from the computer, as this could damage the product.
