Overview of importing media files
This section gives an overview of the import process, using photos or video
files on a digital camera as an example. The procedures for importing
different types of media files from other sources are similar, but may not be
exactly the same as the procedure given in this chapter. For more
information about importing media files from these other devices, see the
Media Import Help Center.
Importing photos or video files from a digital camera
(WIA)
Use this procedure to import photos using a WIA interface. If your digital
camera supports a movie or video feature, you can also use this procedure
to import video files.
Note Digital cameras store video using common video file
formats, such as MPEG or MOV.
To import photos from a camera (WIA):
1 Connect the camera to your computer following the instructions that
came with the camera.
Note If you have not already chosen an application to use with
the camera, you are prompted to do so. Select Media Import and
click OK.
If Media Import is open on your computer, continue with the next
step.
If Media Import is not open, it opens and the Photo Import Home
page appears. Skip to Step 4.
2 On the Media Import Home page, click Photo.
3 On the Photo Import Home page, in the Device drop-down list, select
your camera.
