NOTE
Taking pictures from your Macintosh with live preview uses a lot of
battery power. If you don’t have the PhotoPC AC adapter, you may want
to buy it. See Appendix A for more information about obtaining and
using the AC adapter.
The Auto Shut-off feature remains in effect when the camera is
connected to your Macintosh (except when you use live preview).
However, the camera is shut off after 5 minutes of inactivity. To turn the
camera back on, slide the power switch off and on again.
Follow these steps to take pictures from your Macintosh:
1
Connect the camera to your Macintosh as described in Chapter 3.
2
Position the camera so that it faces the subject. Using a tripod gives
you maximum flexibility in setting up your shots.
3
Turn on both the camera and your Macintosh system.
4
Double-click the EasyPhoto icon. A gallery appears.
5
Click the Add Photos to Gallery button. The PhotoPC screen
appears.
6
Click the Camera Options button. The Camera Controls window
appears, as shown on page 5-7.
7
Click Show Live Preview to display your image in the viewfinder
window.
You can move or tilt the camera until you see the image you want
to capture in the window. The image is updated every three
seconds.
