software from the Canon Digital Camera Solution Disk.
• Sound files attached to still images as sound memos and sound files recorded with the Sound
Recorder function may not download depending on file size and software used.
• RAW images or JPEG images recorded at the same time as RAW images may not be
downloadable with some software programs or operating systems.
• Movies may not download correctly if the file size or software program is incompatible.
• Images shot in the vertical orientation may be downloaded in the horizontal position.
• The protection setting for images protected in the camera may be lost when transferred to
the computer.
