Instead of making a trip to a developer and printing from negatives, you can copy your pictures to a computer for long-term storage. Once transferred, your pictures can be viewed, edited, printed, sent to friends and family via e-mail, or saved to any removable media device (such as floppy disk or CD-ROM) for delivery to a photofinisher. After transferring pictures to your computer, any copies stored on the memory card or on the camera's internal memory can be deleted to provide room for new pictures. This chapter explains how to connect your digital camera to a computer to download pictures to a PC or to use as a PC camera. CAUTION: Do not connect the camera to your computer before installing the software. Please make sure you install the software from the CD-ROM prior to connecting the camera to your computer.
