--- You wrote: The camera should mount on the desktop automagically, and you can use your favorite image editing software to open the pictures. I'm pretty sure that's true for any USB camera, someone please correct me if I'm wrong.
Ken --- end of quote --- In my experience, the Canon software is wierd. I deleted most of that extension stuff. There is supposed to be a way to get the camera to appear as a drive on the desktop but I never got it to work. So you are stuck with dumping the photos into the Canon software. That's why I use a card reader. I take the card out of the camera and put it in the reader as though it were a disk drive, to dump the photos to the computer. The card reader does mount the card on the desktop like a drive. Faster than the camera too, I think. USB card readers are going for $15 these days so it's worth giving one a try. My S50 has a neat feature that senses the position of the camera and the Canon software auto rotates them. That's the only thing I use the Canon software for. It does have some nifty printing features, including a nice way to make photo collages. Rich -- G-List is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
