Camera Control Pro 2
Optional Camera Control Pro 2 software can be used to
access most camera functions from a computer. To use
Camera Control Pro 2, start the computer and connect the
camera using the supplied USB cable as shown below.
Camera Control Pro 2 supports
live view; when used to zoom in
on the view through the lens in
the monitor, it shows more de-
tail than can be displayed in the
camera monitor.
Photographs are saved directly to
the computer, where they can be
inspected and retouched using
optional Capture NX 2 software.
