Connecting to a Computer

Before copying pictures to your computer, you will need to install Nikon
View, an application that allows you to transfer pictures from the
camera memory card to a computer hard disk and view them on the
computer monitor. Once you have installed Nikon View, you are ready
to transfer photographs and movies to your computer. Pictures can be
transferred via a direct USB connection between the camera and
computer. If your computer has built-in USB interface, you can connect
it to your camera using the UC-E1 cable provided.
Connect the UC-E1 USB cable as shown below.
• Use the flat connector for connection to the computer, and connect the other end
of the cable to the camera's USB connector. See the Quick Start Guide for details
on connecting camera to a computer or transferring pictures to a computer.
