USING THE CAMERA WITH A COMPUTER

Camera-Macintosh Connection

Pressing the cradle’s [USB] button puts it into the USB mode,

which is indicated by the USB lamp lighting green. In this mode,

your Macintosh recognizes the memory card loaded in the

camera (or the camera’s built-in memory if it does not have a

memory card loaded) as a drive.

The appearance of the drive icon depends on the Mac OS

version you are using.

From now on, you will not have to perform steps 3 through 5 in

the above procedure when you connect the camera to your

Macintosh (unless you change the camera’s USB settings for

some reason).

IMPORTANT!

• Never disconnect the USB cable or remove the camera

from the USB cradle without exiting the USB mode first.

Doing so can corrupt image data. See “Removing the

Camera from the USB Cradle” on page 244 for the correct

steps you need to perform to remove the camera from the

cradle safely.

Connecting the Camera to Your Macintosh
after the First Time

Since you need to configure menu settings only the first time you

connect the camera to your Macintosh, later connections are

much simpler.

1.

Close the lens cover to turn off the camera
and then place the camera onto the USB
cradle.

2.

Press the USB cradle’s
[USB] button.

• Pressing the cradle’s

[USB] button puts it into the

USB mode, which is

indicated by the USB lamp

lighting green.
