VIEWING IMAGES ON A COMPUTER

USB Connection Precautions

•Be sure to read the documentation that comes with your computer for other important information about USB connections.

•Be sure to connect the AC adaptor to the USB cradle to supply power to the camera.

•USB data communication is performed regardless of the current setting of the camera’s mode selector.

•Do not leave the same image displayed on your computer screen for a long time. Doing so can cause the image to “burn in” on the screen.

•Never disconnect the USB cable, or perform any camera or USB cradle operation while data communication is in progress. Doing so can cause data to become corrupted.

Using the Camera with a Macintosh Computer

The following are the general steps for viewing and copying files from a Macintosh.

You can find details about each operation in the procedures that follow below. Note that you should also refer to the documentation that comes with your Macintosh for other information about USB connections, etc.

IMPORTANT!
