Downloading with Windows Explorer

Images can be downloaded to the computer with Windows Explorer just as you
would copy any other file. RAW images can also be downloaded this way.
1.
Attach the supplied USB cable to the computer's USB port and the
camera's Digital Terminal.
• For USB cable connection instructions, see Connecting the Camera to a
Computer (p. 25).
• If the Event dialog, which allows you to select an application to start (p. 30), or if the
Scanner and Camera Wizard appear, click [Cancel].
2.
Start Windows Explorer and select your camera's icon in it.
• The camera's images will display as thumbnails.
3.
Copy images to a folder on the hard disk using standard Explorer file
copying procedures.
• Copy by Specifying a Folder
Select an image in the Explorer window, right-click the mouse, select [Save] and
specify a folder. The image and its thumbnail will be downloaded to the
specified location.
• Copy by Dragging and Dropping
Select an image in the Explorer window, drag it to the target folder and drop it.
This will download the image and its thumbnail. In Windows Me, RAW image
files converted and downloaded in this manner will have the "CRW" file name
extension removed but retain the remainder of the original file name. For
example, [CRW_0001.CRW] on the CF card will become [CRW_0001] on the
computer. In Windows XP, RAW images are saved with their original file name.
Converting RAW Images in Windows Explorer
You can convert a RAW image by right-clicking it and selecting [Convert], to start
File Viewer Utility. See Converting RAW Format Images for instructions (p. 42).
