Using the Camera for Presentations

You can connect your camera to a multimedia projector or
television and show not just photos, but also text and graphics.
The EPSON Photo File Uploader3 lets you transfer images
from your computer to your camera’s memory card. Anything
you can display on your computer screen can be captured,

converted, and uploaded. You can create and show a
presentation without printing overhead transparencies or
slides, and without a laptop computer.

Projecting the Presentation

You can display the uploaded images on a multimedia
projector, television, or other video output device. Use the
video cable that came with your EPSON PhotoPC 800.

Using the optional AC adapter is highly recommended when you
project your presentation. See page 14 for instructions and ordering
information.

1. Make sure your camera and TV or video projector are

turned off.

2. Open the camera’s connector cover and connect the black

end of the video cable to the

Video Out

port, as shown
