Copying Images to Disk Images in the browsing window can be copied to disk by using drag-and-drop or copy-and-paste. Before copying images to disk, locate or create a destination folder. Copying images by drag-and-drop Select the images you wish to copy by clicking their thumbnails (to select multiple images, hold down the Ctrl key on the keyboard while clicking each image), then drag the images to the destination folder and release the mouse button. Tip All images taken with the camera are assigned file names beginning with "DSC_0001.JPG (or TIF or NEF)." Likewise, all image files saved in folders in the camera's memory are assigned file names beginning with "DSC_0001.JPG (or TIF or NEF)." Thus, to prevent overwriting when copying an image to disk, change the filename when you copy an image, or create a new copy folder for each camera folder. A progress indicator will be displayed while images are copied to disk. Click Cancel to abort the operation. Once all images have been copied to disk, the progress indicator will disappear.
