Connecting to a Computer
TO CONNECTING COMPUTER A
Your Nikon digital camera is equipped with an IEEE 1394 interface, allowing it to be connected to a computer via an IEEE 1394 cable (available separately). Using Nikon View, you can transfer photographs to your computer and list the transferred images as small thumbnail previews, perform minor enhancements, and print them. In addition to these functions, Nikon Capture 3 (available separately) supports more advanced image editing options, including batch processing of multiple photographs.
BeforeYou Begin
Before connecting the camera to a computer:
•Be sure that you have completed installation of the necessary software and have read the software manuals thoroughly
•Check that your system satisfies the requirements listed in the software manuals
•Turn the camera off and ensure that a battery is inserted or the camera con-
nected to an AC adapter
To ensure a continuous supply of power while the camera is connected, we recommend that you use an AC adapter (available separately).
