Nikon has released the first non-beta version of its free webcam utility for macOS and Windows computers. Back in July, Nikon announced it was working on a webcam utility that would turned select Nikon cameras into webcams with compatible videoconferencing and streaming software.
In August, they followed through on that promise with the release of a beta utility for Windows 10 users. Nikon confirmed a macOS version was on the way, but that has yet to be seen—until today.
In addition to being the first non-beta version of the app for Windows 10 users, Webcam Utility Software version 1. 0. 0 is also available for macOS computers.
As with previous versions of the software, all you need is a compatible Nikon camera, a USB cable for plugging the camera into your computer and a videoconferencing or streaming app that supports external webcams, such as Facebook Messenger, Google Meet, Skype, Zoom, OBS and others. Below is a full list of compatible cameras:
Z7

D850
D780
D500
D7500
D5600
You can download Nikon’s Webcam Utility Software version 1. 0. 0 for macOS and Windows 10 computers on Nikon’s website. Additional information and a full list of compatibility notes can also be found on Nikon’s website.
