When I plugged my 10D into my WinXP computer with the 10d's USB cable, it appeared as a mass storage device. It was the same as if it was a CF card reader. And I did not have to install anything special from the Canon Cd.
But perhaps we are talking a difference of semantics only. All I can say for sure was that it appeared both on the desktop and in Windows Explorer, the same as my CF card reader, or any other drive on the computer.
Ah, I stand corrected. In MacOS and Windows 2000, the camera does not mount to the desktop. Those clever folks at Microsoft have apparently written a driver for Windows XP that lets it work like a drive. I've always thought that was a good feature of the Olympus cameras that they mount directly.
