Transferring still images to your VAIO computer
There are a variety of ways to bring still images into your computer using a digital camera or a traditional film camera.
 Digital camera and Universal Serial Bus (USB) cable — Many digital cameras can connect directly to your
computer using a USB cable. The Windows XP operating system enables you to import pictures from many USB
digital cameras.
If your digital camera does not have a USB connection or is not supported by the Windows XP operating system,
refer to the documentation supplied with your camera for details on how to connect your camera to your computer and
transfer images.
 Memory Stick ® or other data storage media — Some digital cameras store pictures on Memory Stick or other media.
You can copy your photos from the storage media directly to your computer's hard disk drive.
 From a scanner — A scanner is a device that "takes a picture" of your still images and stores them as files on your
computer. The Windows XP operating system is compatible with many popular scanners. For scanners not
supported by the Windows
® XP operating system, follow the instructions in the documentation supplied with your
scanner.
 From a commercial film developer — Many companies that develop traditional film can provide a CD-ROM or floppy
disk containing digital copies of your photos. Consult your film developer for details.
