USING THE CAMERA WITH A COMPUTER

Saving an Album

To save an album, copy the “DCIM” folder from camera memory or the memory card to your computer’s hard disk, a CD-R, an MO disk, or some other storage medium. Note that copying only the “ALBUM” folder, does not copy image data and other necessary files.

After copying the “DCIM” folder, do not change or delete any of the files inside of it. Adding new images or deleting existing images may lead to abnormal album display.

If you plan to use a memory card again after saving its album, first delete all of its files or format it before loading it into the camera.

When you have “WEB” selected for the “Use” setting, the album shows only the smaller image files stored in the “ALBUM” folder. Such images can be uploaded to the Internet more quickly.

Installing the Software from the CD-ROM

About the bundled CD-ROM

The CD-ROM that comes bundled with the camera contains the applications described below. Installation of these applications is optional, and you should install only the ones you want to use.

USB Driver for Mass Storage (for Windows)

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, do not install the USB driver from the CD-ROM. With these operating systems, you will be able to perform USB communication simply by connecting the camera to your computer with the USB cable.

Photo Loader (for Windows/Macintosh)

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

With the EX-M20, you can also load audio snapshot and voice recording WAV files to your computer.

Photohands (for Windows)

This application is for retouching and printing image files.
