Creating thumnail images

If the Create Thumbnails box is checked, thumbnail pre- views 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 will be dis- played as thumbnail icons. These thumbnails will also be dis- played in Nikon View Browser, and in the Open dialog box when viewing files on the Nikon D1 camera drive.

Choosing the application used to open camera files

You can choose the application used to open the image files stored in the camera’s memory. The default is Nikon View Browser (built-in viewer).

Application used to open image files

To use a different application, click the Change… button. In the dialog that appears, navigate to a folder containing an appli- cation that supports the file formats used by the camera. Select the application and click Open.

Mounting compact flash-memory cards

When the Mount Camera PC-Cards using Nikon View check box is selected, compact flash-memory cards inserted in a computer card drive or card-reader will be mounted as the Nikon D1 or Nikon CoolPix camera drive (only cards from Nikon digital cameras can be used). Mounted cards can be used in the same fashion as when the camera is mounted as a drive.

Unmounting the Camera
