Viewing image files stored on a computer with
your camera (using a “Memory Stick Duo”)
This section describes the process using a
Windows computer as an example.
When an image file copied to a computer
no longer remains on a “Memory Stick
Duo”, you can view that image again on the
camera by copying the image file on the
computer to a “Memory Stick Duo”.
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 43) and then copy the image
file.
