Installing the Software from the CD-ROM

Before you can exchange files with your computer, you first need to install the software contained on the CD-ROM that comes with the camera.

About the bundled CD-ROM

The CD-ROM that comes bundled with the camera contains the following software.

Photo Loader (for Windows/Macintosh)

This application loads image data saved in JPEG and AVI format from a digital camera onto your computer.

Photohands (for Windows)

This application is for retouching and printing image files.

USB Driver for Mass Storage (for Windows/Macintosh) This is the software that makes it possible for the camera to “talk” to your personal computer over a USB connection. If you are using Windows XP, Mac OS 9, or Mac OS X, do not install the USB driver from the CD-ROM. With these op- erating systems, you will be able to perform USB communi- cation simply by connecting the camera to your computer with the USB cable.
