Using NX Tether to Control the USB-Connected Camera
Use NX Tether software for tethered photography, which allows you to remotely adjust exposure, white balance, and other camera settings, and control the camera for shooting from a computer. Photos can be saved directly to a computer instead of a memory card, allowing them to 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 when the camera is remotely controlled.
