Viewing images using a personal
computer
You can view data recorded with your camera on a personal computer, modify and
attach it to e-mail using application software. This section describes the method for
viewing images on a personal computer using the supplied USB cable.
There are two ways to make the USB connection, which are the normal connection
and the PTP connection (page 81). This is set using [USB CONNECT] in the setup
settings. Users will be informed at the Sony website when PTP connection is
supported. Here describes the way using the [NORMAL] setting.
The factory setting of USB mode is [NORMAL].
The mode can be checked and set as follows.
1 Set the mode dial to SET UP.
2 Select [SETUP2] with v/V, then press B.
3 Select [USB CONNECT] with v/V, then press B.
4 Select the connection mode with v/V.
The USB cable is used to connect the camera to a personal computer so that
operations can be performed on image files recorded in a “Memory Stick” from the
personal computer.
In order to use the USB cable, a USB driver must be installed in the personal
computer beforehand.
Be sure to also refer to the operation manuals for your personal computer and the
application software.
Notes
• Data recorded with your camera is stored in the following formats. Make sure that applications
that support these file formats are installed on your personal computer.
— Still images (other than TEXT mode, uncompressed mode and Clip Motion): JPEG format
— Moving images/audio: MPEG format
— Uncompressed mode still images: TIFF format
— TEXT mode/Clip Motion: GIF format
• Depending on your application software, the file size may increase when you open a still image
file.
• When you copy the image to the camera from your computer, which was modified with a
retouching software and was converted to another file format, the “FILE ERROR” message
may appear and you may be unable to open the image.
• Depending on your application software, only the first frame of the Clip Motion file may be
played back.
