22.4 Transferring Photos, Videos and Voice Recordings

Note:

If your operating system is Windows 98, please read the chapter “Driver Installation on page 35.

If you want to transfer data (photos, videos, voice recordings, MP3 files) between the camera and your computer, then you must first define the memory you want to access. For more information on this option, read “ Memory” on page 29.

Switch the camera on and set the USB mode to “MSDC” (see page 29). Use the USB cable to connect your camera to your computer without switching the camera off. (See page 35).

The MSDC USB mode is the standard setting. This means that you must only execute the aforementioned step if you have used your camera as a webcam or video camera, or have printed photos using PictBridge.

If you have correctly connected the camera to your computer, a new removable medium drive appears in “My Computer”. You can now use this removable drive as a normal drive. You can copy, delete or rename files as normal. If necessary, read the operating instructions for your operating system.

Caution:

To prevent data loss, you should never disconnect your camera from your computer whilst saving or writing data. To connect the camera from your computer, follow the instructions on page 42.

22.5 Using the DV-767 as a Webcam

Note:

Before using the DV-767 as a webcam for the first time, read the chapter “Driver Installation ” on page 35.

If you have correctly installed the driver for the DV-767, then you can, for example, use the camera as a webcam for applications such as Skype (see image on right) or other video conference systems. This software is not included.

To use the camera as a webcam, switch it on and set the USB mode to Webcam (see page 29). Connect your camera to your computer without switching the camera off. (See page 35). It is then available as a webcam for all programs.

Note:

Use the support provided to position the camera on the table in front of you.
