I don't know about Sony cameras in particular, but most low cost digital cameras have a interface that simulates a vfat file system like is used on a floppy disk. You can learn how to interface a flash memory dongle (e.g. Sandisk) and repeat that work for your camera. Some expensive cameras also have another interface that supports setting and examining all the option settings in the camera, e.g. things like reading and adjusting the digital clock that puts time/date stamps on the photos. If your camera is not new and not expensive, it probably doesn't have this. -- Paul E Condon [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe". Trouble?
