Camera Control
The camera can be controlled from a computer running Camera Control
Pro 2 (available separately) or free NX Tether software. Photos can be
saved directly to the computer instead of to the memory card and can
consequently be taken even when no memory card is inserted in the
camera.
•
You will still need to insert a memory card when filming videos.
•
Note that the camera standby timer does not expire in camera control
mode.
•
Before using Camera Control Pro 2 or
NX Tether, connect the camera and
computer via Ethernet or a wireless LAN.
Connect using a host profile selected via the
network menu [Connect to computer]>
[Network settings] list.
•
When a connection is established, the
profile name will be displayed in green in
the camera [Connect to computer] menu.
