Step 1: Installing the USB driver on a computer

You need to install the USB driver on your computer to connect your camcorder via a USB cable (supplied). The installation is required only for the first time. From the second time on, you only need to connect the USB cable.

To transfer pictures with more precision, use an i.LINK cable (optional) instead of the USB cable (DV format models only).

In that case, operations in Step 1 are not necessary.

For Windows 2000/Windows XP

Log on as Administrators.
