Connecting to Your
Computer
There are two ways to access KODAK PROFESSIONAL DCS Pro SLR/n Digital
Camera images from your computer:
• Connect the camera to the computer using an IEEE 1394 connection,
then capture images using the KODAK PROFESSIONAL DCS Camera
Manager software. If you use DCS Camera Manager’s Capture Preview
mode, you can view images on your computer as they are captured.
Once DCS Camera Manager transfers images to your computer, you can
access them using the KODAK PROFESSIONAL DCS Photo Desk software.
• Remove the memory card from the camera, insert it into a card reader,
then access the images using DCS Photo Desk.
Advantages to an IEEE 1394 Connection
• You can capture images, then view them on your computer within
seconds.
Advantages to a Card Reader
• You do not need a camera present to access images from your computer.
• Many laptop computers do not have IEEE 1394 connections; however,
they do have card readers.
• You do not need to attach a computer when you originally take the
picture.
