Downloading Images to a Computer (1/8)
This chapter explains a sequence of basic procedures in order, such as
downloading images from the camera and printing downloaded
images. This section starts by explaining the procedures for
downloading images from the camera.
○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○
IMPORTANT
•This guide assumes that all the relevant software programs
and drivers have been correctly installed on your computer. If
you have not yet installed them, read the guide supplied with
your product and install them.
Starting Methods for ZoomBrowser EX
There are two ways to start ZoomBrowser EX: “Connecting the
Camera and Computer” and “Starting by Clicking an Icon or
Menu.” The “Connecting the Camera and Computer” method
is generally the most convenient for downloading images from
the camera. Use the icon method under the following
circumstances.
•To use ZoomBrowser EX when a camera or memory card
reader is not connected.
•To restart ZoomBrowser EX with a camera or memory card
reader already attached after the program has been closed.
•To use ZoomBrowser EX when the Auto Start function has
been set to start a different program when the camera is
connected.
○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○
IMPORTANT
•With some versions of Windows, you may not be able to use
the “Connecting the Camera and Computer” method the
very first time the camera is connected after the computer has
been booted up (due to a Windows limitation). Use the icon
method in this case. You can use the “Connecting the
Camera and Computer” method from the second time
onward.

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.
Using Camera Commands to Download Images
1. Read the dialog that displays.
Proceed to Step 2 if the Camera Control Window opens on the
computer.
If your camera has a (Print/Share) button, it will light and a
Direct Transfer menu, like the one shown below right, will
appear on the camera’s LCD monitor.
○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○
REFERENCE

commands.
•The content of the LCD monitor screen and the method for
displaying the Direct Transfer menu may differ between camera
models.
○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○
IMPORTANT
•Check to ensure that the computer and the camera or memory
card reader are in the correct state for communication.
○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○○
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.
•You can also download sound files to the computer that were
