Using the Camera with a Computer
3. Double-click the image file you want to view.
• For information about file names, see “Memory Folder Structure” on page 133.
• An image that was rotated on the camera will be displayed on your computer
screen in its original (unrotated) orientation.
IMPORTANT!
• Never unplug the USB cable, or operate the camera while viewing or storing
images. Doing so can cause data to become corrupted.
Windows Media Player, which is already installed on most computers, can be used
for movie playback. To play back a movie, first copy the movie to your computer and
then double-click the movie file.
. Minimum Computer System Requirements for Movie Playback
The minimum system requirements described below are necessary to play back
movies recorded with this camera on a computer.
• The above are recommended system environments. Configuring one of these
environments does not guarantee proper operation.
• Certain settings and other installed software may interfere with proper playback of
movies.
Never use your computer to modify, delete, move, or rename any image files
that are in the camera’s built-in memory or on its memory card.
Doing so can cause problems with the camera’s image management data, which
will make it impossible to play back images on the camera and can drastically alter
remaining memory capacity. Whenever you want to modify, delete, move, or
rename an image, do so only on images that are stored on your computer.
