I think (perhaps I was mistaken) he was asking about remotely controlling the camera, ie, being able to make the camera take a picture, configuring fstop, etc... through software. I think all Nikon View does for you is download the images and catalog them. If running OS X, iPhoto (and Image Capture if the camera is not a USB Mass Storage device) should work well, although I don't use either too often. > I use Nikon view 5 > > You can download it at Nikon.
