Downloading images to a PC
There are two ways of downloading images from the camera to a PC:
1. Use a compact flash card reader such as a USB flash card reader
connected to your PC USB port. The memory card will appear as a
removable drive in Windows Explorer, and the images can be copied
to your hard drive or other storage medium using Windows Explorer.
Images can be opened directly from the memory card in HemiView,
but this is not recommended, because HemiView does not store the
images themselves, only information about them, so the images will
be lost when the memory card is removed.
Adapters are also available for plugging a compact flash card directly
into a PCMCIA card slot, which works in a similar way.
2. Connect the camera direct to your PC USB port (see camera manual
p 76). The camera appears as a removable drive in Windows
Explorer.
Alternatively the images can be viewed and downloaded to your hard
drive using the supplied Nikon Picture Project software.
