Downloading Still Images

Below explains the procedure for connecting a camcorder to a computer using the
USB cable. For connecting a card reader/writer, see Using a Card Reader/Writer
( 34).
You cannot connect the camcorder to a computer if the built-in hard disk/
memory or the memory card contains 1,800 images or more. In such case,
copy the images in the built-in hard disk/memory to a memory card and then
use a card reader/writer to download the images to the computer.
You may not be able to download images with ImageBrowser or OS
standard software (depending on the computer you are using and the
installed OS) if the built-in hard disk/memory or the memory card contains
more than approximately 1000 images. In such case, copy the images in the
built-in hard disk/memory to a memory card and then use a card reader/
writer to download the images to the computer.
Observe the following precautions when the camcorder's access indicator is
flashing. Failure to do so may cause data to become corrupted.
- Do not remove the memory card or detach the USB cable.
- Do not turn off the camcorder or the computer.
- Do not change the position of the mode dial.
The still images you recorded and/or downloaded to the hard disk are
important original data files. Create a copy of the file first before working on it
on your computer.
