350D - How do I download the images?

Hamzter · 4 Apr 2010 at 16:45

I'm feeling very stupid today but how on earth do you download the pics from a Canon EOS 350D? I've installed the driver but I can't access the images directly through explorer, I suspect I need some software like Zoombrowser but canon don't actually offer that for download on their website, only updaters :confused:

It uses a CF memory card too and I don't have a suitable card reader. Any idea how on earth I'm meant to download the photos?

Just plug it in... windows should see it as a memory card and show up a drive, no extra software needed

Menu > Setttings pg 2 > Communication - XP needs to have it set to PC connection. Win7 needs it set to Print/PTP. Not sure about Vista.

Ah that did the trick, setting to Print/PTP enabled me to access it as external storage. Thanks!
