Using the Camera with a Computer
4. Turn off the camera
and then use the
USB cable that
comes with the
camera to connect it
to your computer.
• The camera does not
draw power over the
USB cable. Make
sure the camera’s
battery is sufficiently
charged before
connecting.
• Make sure that you
insert the cable
connector into the
USB/AV port until you
feel it click securely
into place. Failure to
insert the connector fully can result in poor communication or malfunction.
• Note that even while the connector is fully inserted, you
still will be able to see the metal part of the connector as
shown in the illustration.
• When connecting the USB cable to a USB port, make
sure you align the connector correctly with the port.
• Your computer may not be able to recognize the camera if you connect via a
USB hub. Always connect directly to the computer’s USB port.
