∫ PictBridge (PTP) setting
Even if you set [USB MODE] to 
[PictBridge (PTP)], you can connect to your 
PC if the OS is Windows XP Home Edition/
Professional or Mac OS X.
• Pictures can only be read on the camera. 

They cannot be written to a card or 
deleted.

• When there are 1000 or more pictures on 

a card, the pictures may not be imported.

• Do not use any other USB connection 

cables except the supplied one.

• Do not disconnect the USB connection 

cable while [ACCESS] is displayed.

• If battery power is exhausted while the 

camera and the PC are communicating, 
the recorded data may be damaged. 
When you connect the camera to the PC, 
use a battery with sufficient battery power 
(P12) or the AC adaptor (DMW-AC7; 
optional).

• If the remaining battery power becomes 

low while the camera and the PC are 
communicating, the status indicator blinks 
and the alarm beeps. In this case, stop 
the communication at once on the PC.

• Pictures edited or rotated with a PC may 

be displayed in black in playback mode 
(P35), multi playback (P70) and calendar 
playback (P71).

• For information about this, refer to the 

separate operating instructions for PC 
connection.

• Read the operating instructions for the 

PC.

By connecting the camera directly to a 
printer supporting PictBridge via the USB 
connection cable (supplied), you can select 
the pictures to print and start printing on the 
camera’s screen.
Set print settings such as the print quality 
on the printer beforehand. (Read the printer 
operating instructions.)

(P12) or the AC adaptor (DMW-AC7; 
optional) when you connect to a printer.

• Turn the camera off before inserting or 

removing the cable for the AC adaptor 
(DMW-AC7; optional).
