Working with
cameras and scanners
Images can come from different sources. With Photo Explorer, photos that were
taken with a digital camera can be transferred to your PC. If you have a scanner
device, you can also transform photo prints or documents into images directly in
Photo Explorer. Once you have all your desired images, easily rename the files
and resequence them based on your own numbering scheme.
Digital Camera Wizard
Getting images from a digital camera can be much faster and simpler if you use
the Digital Camera Wizard. Use this tool to get images from a digital camera, or
retrieve images from a flash memory card that’s inserted in a memory card reader.
Note: Photo Explorer can read any flash memory
card format that follows the JEIDA ‘DCF’ (Design
rule for Camera File system).
