On OS X and Linux, the GPhoto device adapter can drive at least some
Nikon cameras. On Windows (32-bit only), the NKRemoteCamera adapter
works with some Nikon DSLRs, although it depends on a commercial
library. However, I have not tried either of these adapters, and I don't
know if either will work (both theoretically and practically) with the
Nikon 1.

Best,
Mark
