This section describes two methods for downloading images shot from
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.

recorded using the Sound Recorder feature. The downloading
procedures are explained in Chapter 3 "Downloading Sound
Files from the Camera."
