Never connect your camera to the computer
Read this recent forum post in the box below
The biggest and most time wasteful problem facing the digital camera user is the connection between the camera and the computer. If you've been following my forum posts, you've read that I recommend NOT connecting the camera to the computer and NOT installing software with the camera manufacturers name on it. People have sometimes wasted days trying to figure out how to transfer their images. My recommendation is to get a USB card reader (cost about $30) and transfer the images through Windows Explorer. Another advantage not usually mentioned, is that the camera is powered by it's rechargeable battery and the transferring of images can run down that battery turning the camera off during transfer and cause you to loose images. Are your images worth the cost of a $30 card reader?
