11 Transferring images to a computer

How to download images to a computer

By connecting the camera to a computer with the specified USB cable or IEEE1394
cable, images stored on a card can be transferred to the computer.
If you have graphics applications that support the JPEG file format (such as the
software provided or photo-retouching software), you can process images or print
them from your computer. When you print images, be sure to check beforehand
whether printing is possible with your software. For details on printing images with the
software, refer to your software's manual.
Some operating systems (OS) may need to install a driver before connecting to the
camera for the first time. Follow the procedure in the "Flowchart" (P. 144).
Screen illustrations in this chapter may differ to those displayed on your computer.
