CONNECTING THE CAMERA TO A COMPUTER

A fully charged battery should be used when the camera is connected to a computer. The
use of the AC adapter (sold separately) is recommended over the use of the battery. For
users with Windows 98 or 98SE, read the section on page 81 on how to install the
necessary USB driver before connecting the camera to a computer.

1.Start up the computer. The computer must be turned on before

connecting the camera.

2.Insert the memory card into the camera. To change the memory

card while the camera is connected to a computer, see page 88.

3.Slide the USB-port cover open. Insert the small plug of the USB

cable into the camera. Make sure the plug is firmly attached.

4.Attach the other end of the USB cable to the computer’s USB

port. Make sure the plug is firmly attached. The camera should
be connected directly to the computer’s USB port. Attaching the
camera to a USB hub may prevent the camera from operating
properly.

5.Turn on the camera to initiate the USB connection. While the

camera is connected to a computer, the data-transfer screen is
displayed.

When the USB connection is completed, a drive icon, or volume,
appears in My Computer or the desktop; the name varies with
memory card. When using Windows XP or Mac OS X, a window
opens requesting instructions on what to do with the image data;
follow the directions in the window.
