NOTES

Refer also to the computer’s instruction manual.

Users of Windows 7, Windows Vista, Windows XP and Mac OS X: Your camcorder is equipped with the standard Picture Transfer Protocol (PTP) allowing you to transfer photos (JPEG only) simply by connecting the camcorder to a computer using the supplied USB cable, without having to install the supplied software Photo Application.

If you have no intention to use the optional DW-100 DVD Burner, you

can set or [USB Connection Type] to [ Computer/Printer] so the selection screen does not appear every time you connect the camcorder to a computer.

If you connect the camcorder to the computer while it is set to mode, the process of creating scene thumbnails will start automatically. In such case, select [Skip] to stop the process and use the computer’s Safely Remove Hardware function (Windows) or Eject function (Mac OS) to end the connection to the camcorder. Disconnect the USB cable, set

the camcorder to mode and restore the connection.
