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.
