Nikon designed the D300 so that it would continue to operate

normally while connected to a computer. That means that

you can take pictures while the camera is connected to the

computer. You can also control the camera from the

computer with Nikon Camera Control Pro 2.0, something that

is useful in studio situations (see the appropriate section on

this software in Introduction to Nikon Software).

The D300 also supports a wireless and Ethernet option of

connecting to a computer via the WT-4.

2. Connect the camera to a PictBridge-enabled printer

and print directly. See "PictBridge Printing" on page
