Installing The Digital Video Software - Canon 0273B001 - Elura 90 Camcorder Instruction Manual

Installing the Digital Video Software

Before you connect the camcorder to the computer with the USB cable for the
first time, you must install the Digital Video Software.
Mac OS X (version 10.1.5/10.2/10.3) Users:
Your digital video camcorder is equipped with the standard Picture Transfer
Protocol (PTP). This protocol enables you to download images by simply
connecting the camera to a computer with the USB cable (using software such
as iPhoto or Image Capture preinstalled on Mac OS X).
However, please note that there are several limitations to downloading images
with this method. To avoid these problems, install ImageBrowser to download
images.
It may take a few minutes, after connecting the camcorder, until you can
download images.
Only AVI* movie files can be downloaded. Thumbnails cannot be
downloaded.
* Two files are created in the camcorder (for example: [MVI_0001.AVI] and
[MVI_0001.THM]). [MVI_0001.THM] files cannot be downloaded but
movies can still be played back on the computer.
Mac OS X version 10.2
- The Exif* version may change to 2.1 and image information may be
modified when downloading images with Image Capture. To download
images without any information changes, use the following procedures:
1) Connect the camcorder to the computer and prepare it to
transfer data.
2) Start Image Capture.
3) In the screen that appears, click [Options].
4) Remove the checkmark from [Embed Colorsync profile] in the
[Download Options] tab and click [OK].
* Images shot with camcorders complying with Exif Print incorporate
shooting settings information, such as the shooting conditions and
program AE mode, along with the image data.
