Now that you have your camera installed you can use it to capture short movies called AVI files. These can be
saved directly to your computer. The length of time you can record an AVI while the camera is connected to
your computer will vary, depending on how much hard drive space you will use to save the file. Please take note
that these AVI files take up a lot of hard drive space. This is done through the PhoTags WebCam Express
program. This next section will walk you though capturing an AVI file.

1. Make sure that your camera is connected via the USB cable to your PC.

2. Double-click the “WebCam Express” icon

that is on your desktop. This will launch the PhoTags

Web Cam Express program.
