Viewing image files stored on a computer with

Windows computer as an example.

you can view that image again on the
camera by copying the image file on the
computer to a “Memory Stick”.
• Step 1 is not necessary if the file name set with
your camera has not been changed.
• You may be unable to play back some images
depending on the image size.
• When an image file has been processed by a
computer or when the image file was recorded
using a model other than that of your camera,
playback on your camera is not guaranteed.
• When there is no folder, first create a folder with
your camera (page 47) and then copy the image
file.
