The department's digital camera can be checked out for department-related business, including classwork. The camera should be returned to the office as soon as possible, battery fully recharged, with pictures already transferred to your computer and deleted from the camera's memory,


• Transferring pictures

The camera case includes a USB cable. Plug one end of the cable into the camera, the other into a USB port on the computer of your choice. On the Macintosh computers there is a USB port on the back side of the flatscreen as well as on the back side of the CPU chassis.

When the camera is connected to the computer, turn the camera power ON. Within seconds the computer should respond by showing a new folder appear on the main screen. You can open that folder and find a subfolder named ``DCIM'' which contains the camera's JPG files. Copy them over into a new folder on the computer where you can work with them later. Remember to turn the camera off before putting the camera and USB cable back into the case.
