Transferring Memory Card Images to a Computer Elura 50

You can download images from the memory card to a computer using the supplied USB cable. With the supplied software, you can easily download, browse and archive images, and arrange still images for printout.

For Windows XP and Mac OS X users:
Your camcorder is equipped with the standard Picture Transfer Protocol (PTP). This protocol enables you to download images by simply connecting the camcorder to a computer with the USB cable (a software such as the [Scanner and Camera Wizard] starts automatically) without installing the software from the DIGITAL VIDEO SOLUTION DISK.

1. Install the software.
   
   

2. Connect the camcorder and the PC with an USB cable.
   
   

3. Turn the camcorder's POWER switch to PLAY (VCR) and move the TAPE/CARD switch to CARD ().
   - "PC CONNECT [USB]" appears in the display to indicate that USB connection is being performed.
   
   
   
   

4. Start the software and download still images/movies from the memory card to the computer.

Do not disconnect the USB cable, open the memory card cover, remove the memory card, change the position of the TAPE/CARD switch or turn off the camcorder and computer while data is being transferred to the computer (while the camcorder's card access indicator is flashing). Doing so may damage the memory card's data. Operation may not work correctly depending on the software and the specifications/settings of your computer. The image files on your memory card and the image files saved on the hard disk drive of your computer are valuable, original data files. If you wish to use image files on your computer, make copies of them first, and use the copied file, retaining the original. Make sure that camcorder and computer are not connected with a DV cable before connecting the camcorder to the computer using the USB cable. Otherwise, the computer may not operate properly.

The buttons on the camcorder (except for the POWER switch and TAPE/CARD switch) do not operate during USB connection.
