USING THE CAMERA WITH A COMPUTER

Supported Image Files

•Image files recorded with the CASIO QV-R3/QV-R4 Digital Camera

•DCF protocol image files

Certain DCF functions may not be supported. When display- ing an image recorded on another camera model, it may take a long time for the image to appear on the display.

Built-in Memory and Memory Card Precautions

•Note that the folder named “DCIM” is the parent (top) folder of all the files in memory. When transferring memory con- tents to a hard disk, MO disk, or other external storage, treat all the contents inside a DCIM folder as a set and al- ways keep them together. You can change the name of the DCIM folder on your computer. Changing the name to a date is a good way to keep track of multiple DCIM folders. However, be sure you change the name of the DCIM folder back to “DCIM” before you copy it back to camera memory for playback on the camera. The camera does not recog- nize any folder name other than DCIM.

•We also strongly recommend that after transferring data from memory to other external storage that you reformat memory and delete its contents before using it to store more files. Remember that formatting memory deletes all of its contents. Check to make sure that you no longer need any of the files in memory before you format it.
