Precautions for the PTP Function O Due to Windows XP specifications, you may experience the following restrictions with the PTP function. We recommend downloading shot images using EOS Utility (p.1-6). • RAW images cannot be downloaded. (Even if RAW images are displayed, they cannot be downloaded.) • When a memory card in the camera contains both RAW images and JPEG images, you may not be able to download the JPEG images. • Shooting information for downloaded images may be altered or deleted. • Images cannot be downloaded if there is a large quantity of images in the camera (approximately 1,000 images). • It may take several minutes after connecting the camera and your computer until the PTP function is operational. • Vertically shot images become horizontal when downloaded, or an image does not rotate even if you use the Rotate command. In addition to the above restrictions, you may not be able to download images correctly depending on your OS version and computer environment. O With the EOS 10D, it is necessary to change the firmware version to 2.0.0 or later. For details on changing, refer to Canon's web site. O When using the PTP function with the EOS-1D series cameras, connect with the USB interface cable supplied with the camera.
