“Paste”.
Windows Vista users: On the “Documents” “Edit” menu, select 
“Paste”.
Windows XP users: On the “My Documents” “Edit” menu, select 
“Paste”.
This will paste the “DCIM” folder (and all the image files it contains) into your 
“Documents” (Windows 7 / Windows Vista) or “My Documents” (Windows XP) 
folder. You now have a copy of the files that are in camera memory on your 
computer.

images in the CS group. A CS group cannot be viewed as a CS image on a 
computer.
IMPORTANT!
• Never unplug the USB cable, or operate the camera while viewing or storing 
images. Doing so can cause data to become corrupted. Never use your computer to modify, delete, move, or rename any image files 
that are in the camera’s built-in memory or on its memory card.
Doing so can cause problems with the camera’s image management data, which 
will make it impossible to play back images on the camera and can drastically alter 
remaining memory capacity. Whenever you want to modify, delete, move, or 
rename an image, do so only on images that are stored on your computer.
