Unloading images without using the camera software

If you are away from home, you can unload images to a computer that does not have the camera software installed on it.

Note

Make sure that the computer has a USB port and

 

that its operating system is Windows 2000 or

 

Windows ME or later, or Macintosh OS 8.6 or later.
