The best way to download pictures from your camera to your computer involves removing the memory card from the camera and plugging it into a card reader (either built-in to the computer or connected via USB or FireWire). This is likely to be faster than connecting the camera to the computer, and won't run down your camera's batteries.
Once the card is plugged in, it will appear to your computer as a removable drive. You can use the operating system's drag&drop facility to copy pictures from the card to the computer's hard drive, the same way you copy any other files. Or you can use any photo cataloging program such as Picasa ( http://picasa.google.com ).
Testimonial: "That would be great if the card would appear to my computer as a removable drive. It doesn't."

I have a DMC-LZ7 that I purchased a year and a half ago. You can transfer pics from the built-in memory from the "copy" menu function when the camera is in play mode (10th option down in the menu). If you move the cursor down to this selection then hit the right arrow button, there should be options to both transfer from built-in memory to the SD card and vice versa.

First of all, it's faster to use a fast SD to USB adapter with a fast SD card. This beats attaching a (slow) cable to the camera by far. Plus, the method of transfer gets confusing when considring internel memory via cable, on some systems. Skip the cable. I like to get my SD card with matching USB adapter. Both of these need to rated fast. Not just a "Class 6" and not just big but FAST. It saves your time! Repeatedly.
Therefore, switch to "Play" mode. Go down to the "Playback" menu and find "Copy". Copy "in" to the SD icon. That's it.
You might want to clear you internal memory too. But only after your pictures are safe.

Remove the memory card from your camera before connecting the camera to your computer. The computer will then see the camera's internal memory instead of the card memory, and you can copy the pictures over.
If you have been accessing your pictures by removing the card from the camera and placing it in a card reader attached to your computer, then this won't work for pictures in the internal memory. You will need to use the other method, connecting the camera to the computer with the USB lead.

does your camera have any internal memory ?
if no ? there's no chance of getting those pictures back
if camera has internal memory..just connect your camera to PC using usb cable
most of the Still cameras do not require driver or software
to transfer images now a days.
Once you connect the Camera to the computer, you will get
the Camera as a removable drive under My Computer. You can open the removable
drive to see the pictures stored in the Camera/Memory Card.
If the Operating System installed in your Computer still
needs a driver, you may use the Memory Card slot on the Computer to transfer
the pictures. Please follow the steps to transfer pictures using Memory Card
Reader in the Computer:
-
Remove the Memory Card from the Camera.
-
Insert it in the Memory Card slot in the Computer.
-
Open the pop up window or find out the removable drive under
My Computer.
-
Copy the required files to a folder in the Computer.
Note : Most of the Notebooks comes with its own Memory Card
Slot. If it does not, you may get one from the market without much spending.
Thanks for understanding.
