66 Downloading with Windows Explorer Images can be downloaded to the computer with Windows Explorer just as you would copy any other file. RAW images can also be downloaded this way. 1. Attach the supplied USB cable to the computer's USB port and the camera's Digital Terminal. • For USB interface connection instructions, see "Connecting to a USB Port" (p. 16). • The Scanners and Cameras Wizard will open automatically. 2. Click the [Cancel] button. 3. Start Windows Explorer and select your camera's icon in it. • The camera's images will display as thumbnails in the Explorer window. 4. Copy images to a folder on the hard disk using standard Explorer file copying procedures. • Copy by Specifying a Folder Select an image in the Explorer window, right-click the mouse, select [Save] and specify a folder. The image and its thumbnail will be downloaded to the specified location. • Copy by Dragging and Dropping Select an image in the Explorer window, drag it to the target folder and drop it. This will download the image and its thumbnail. RAW image files converted and downloaded in this manner will have the "CRW" file name extension removed but retain the remainder of the original file name. For example, [CRW_0001.CRW] on the CF card will become [CRW_0001] on the computer. Converting RAW Images with Windows Explorer If you double-click a RAW image in Explorer or right-click it and select [Convert], RAW Image Converter will start to allow conversion of the image. For more on converting RAW images, read "Converting RAW Format Images" (p. 48).
