Putting Canon camcorder still pictures on the computer

R

Robert

I have a Canon ZR70MC camcorder and I used it to take some still pictures
which are on an SD disk. I would like to transfer them to my computer but I
need a Digital Video Solution Disk. I can't find this on the Canon Website.
The manual is there but no disk. Anybody know where I can get this
software?

You don't need any software. Get a SD card reader. Put the memory card in it
and plug it into a USB port. You can find them for well less than $10:00. I
use them for my camera and my cell phone.

How do these things work? On batteries? How can a card reader cost so
little? This is in lieu of the camcorder? If I plug it into the computer,
won't I get a popup that says new device detected? And then won't it ask
for software if it doesn't recognize it?

I have a cable that I paid $24 at Radio Shack for. But when I connect it,
the computer comes back with new device detected and then it says it will
try to recognize the device and then it says it doesn't recognize it.

I take the card out of my camera and put it in the reader. The card goes in
one end and the other end is a USB plug. It looks similar to a flash drive.

Stick it in a USB port and click on My Computer. It will show Removable
Drive (letter), or something similar. You open it up and you can see
thumbnails of your pix. Open the folder list in the left pane and just drag
the pix to a folder of your choice.

You can delete the pix from the card in one shot as well if you wish.
