Connections-Connecting to a Computer Connecting to a Computer Data Transfer and Camera Control The supplied UC-E4 USB cable can be used to connect the camera to a computer. Once the camera is connected, PictureProject can be used to copy photographs to the computer, where they can be browsed, viewed, and retouched. The camera can also be used with other applications available separately from Nikon, including Capture NX, which supports batch processing and more advanced image editing options, and Camera Control Pro, which can be used to control the camera directly from the computer.
