Retaining file name given by camera |
|
|
I am using XP, when I download photos from the camera to My Pictures, how do
I retain the file name that the camera has given it, e.g CIMG123.jpg at the
moment XP names it Photo 1,2, 3 etc.
Also, do I still need the Casio camera driver on my PC or will the XP wizard
suffice?
Thanks |

Thanks Michael, I don't have a built in media reader and really want to avoid
the expense of buying one, so I was really hoping to find a solution using
the 'tools' that I have. Regards Sarah |

You don't need either one.
Get a (or use the built-in) media reader. Just move the media card from
the camera to the media reader. The media card will show up in Windows
Explorer as a drive. Then drag and drop pictured from the media drive
to wherever you want them.
"Magic" picture transfer programs are a pain.

They usually sell for about $10, and are often "free" with rebates.
They are a very inexpensive solution to a multitude of problems.
