computer
1Insert a sufficiently charged battery pack into the camera, or connect the
camera to a wall outlet (wall socket) using the AC-LS5 AC Adaptor (sold

separately).
• Use a Type3-compliant USB/AV/DC IN Cable (sold separately).
2Turn on the computer, then press (Playback) button.
3Connect the camera to your computer.
• When a USB connection is established for the first time, your computer automatically runs a program
to recognize the camera. Wait for a while.
“PMB” allows you to easily import images.
For details on “PMB” functions, see the “PMB Help”.
Importing images to a computer without using “PMB”
When the AutoPlay Wizard appears after making a USB connection between the camera and a
computer, click [Open folder to view files] t [OK] t [DCIM] or [MP_ROOT] t copy the
desired images to the computer.
• Use “PMB” for operations such as when importing AVCHD movies to a com puter.
• If operations are performed on an AVCHD movie file or folder on the camera from a PC while the
camera is connected to a PC, it may destroy the image file or playback may become impossible. Do not
delete or copy AVCHD movies on the camera’s memory card from a PC. Sony bears no responsibility
for the result of operations of this type.
• The camera creates a 3D image by combining a JPEG file with an MPO file. If you delete either file on a
PC, you cannot playback the 3D image.
