VIEWING IMAGES ON A COMPUTER
After using the USB cable to establish a USB connection
between the camera and your computer, you can use your
computer to view images in file memory and copy images
to your computer’s hard disk or other storage media. In
order to do this, you first need to install the USB driver
located on the CD-ROM that comes bundled with the
camera onto your computer. If you have a Macintosh
running Mac OS 9 or OS X (10.1, 10.2 or higher), use the
standard USB driver that comes with your OS.
Note that the procedure you need to perform depends on
whether you are using computer running under Windows
(see below) or a Macintosh (see page 140).
