Use ViewNX 2 software, which can be downloaded from the Nikon website, to view and share your images and movies.
Can I use batteries or accessories from other brands?
No. Only certified Nikon brand electronic accessories should be used, as non-Nikon items could damage the camera or void the warranty.
