Transferring Images to the PC (Importing)

Once you have installed all of the required software (described in the previous chapter) and have captured images, you will want to connect your camera to the PC so that you can transfer your images for editing or storing.

Note: Connecting the camera to the computer renders the camera buttons inoperable. However, several functions can be controlled through the Control Panel as described later in this chapter.

Transferring Images to the PC

The images will be transferred (Imported) from one of three sources:

1.The internal memory of the camera

2.The CF card

3.A PCMCIA CF card reader

To transfer images to the PC (Import):

1.Open an image-editing application. We will use iPhoto Plus 4 as an example.

2.From the File menu, choose Acquire and click Select Source. The Select Source dialog box appears.

3.Choose Mustek VDC-300 and click Select.

4.Return to the File menu, select Acquire and click Image. The Acquire Image dialog box appears.

5.Select New Image and click Acquire.

The Select image source dialog box appears requesting you to select the source of the images.

Note: If the Photo Album is already open, select Import from the Camera menu or click the

Select Image Source icon.

6.Check the Preview Thumbnail box if you want to view image thumbnails in the Photo Album, otherwise, only image informa- tion will be displayed.

7.Click on the source (Internal memory, CF card, or CF card reader) of the images you want to import. The Photo Album opens with the source images.

Note: Clicking the Cancel button allows you access to the Photo Album without importing any images.

If you were already in the Photo Album, clicking the Cancel button will exit you from this function.

Note: When importing images from a PCMCIA CF card reader, it is not necessary to have the camera connected to the computer, as the card reader acts as an independent source. The PCMCIA card reader is used with a CF card connector and is installed into your main computer housing unit as a CD-ROM would be. These CF card read- ers are also very popular when using notebook or laptop comput- ers, and many of them are often equipped with a CF card reader.
