button.
2. Connect your camera’s USB port (left side near the display with
camera unlatched and open) to a PC or Mac computer with the

using the “USB Mass Storage” standard (no driver installation
necessary-not compatible with Windows 98 or earlier). The PC will
display a new disk symbol under “My Computer” or in Windows
Explorer (Macs-new disk appears on the desktop), and you will see a
dialog window on your desktop with several options to view, move,
or copy the photo and video les that are stored on the SD card.
The camera’s LCD will display “STO”, meaning the camera is in mass
storage mode.

or Down button to select another photo or video.

signal from the camera’s lens, press Ok. Press again to switch back
to Review/Playback mode. Press Setup to exit both modes.
• When you are nished using the external video monitor, turn o the
camera and disconnect the cable from the TV out jack.
