Downloading Images to Your Computer (3/6)
Connecting the Camera to Download
This section describes two methods for downloading images
shot with the camera to a computer.
Downloading Images with Camera Commands
You can use this method to download images with cameras
that support the direct transfer function.
Downloading Images with Computer Commands
This method uses commands entered on the computer to
download images from a memory card in a camera or in a
memory card reader. This method can be used regardless of
whether your camera supports the direct transfer function or not.
This method is explained later in the Using Computer
Commands to Download Images section.
REFERENCE
• This section uses the “Download All Camera Images Not Yet
Downloaded” method, a simple method, to download images.
Chapter 3 explains in greater detail how to select images for
downloading from a camera or memory card and how to
perform tasks such as changing the file destination.
• If images shot on different dates are contained on the memory
card, the images will be grouped in folders by shooting date
when they are downloaded and the folder with the most recent
shooting date will display.
Using Camera Commands to Download Images
You can download images using camera commands if your
camera supports the direct transfer function (camera has a
(Print/Share) button).
1.
Connect the camera to the computer with the
interface cable.
If a Camera Control Window similar to the one below opens,
proceed directly to Step 2. If your camera features a
(Print/
Share) button, it will flash and a Direct Transfer menu similar to
the lower right one will appear on the camera’s LCD monitor.

IMPORTANT
* If the Direct Transfer menu does not appear in the camera's
LCD monitor, you cannot download images using camera
procedures.
