Consider NOT using a driver.

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 Windows Photo Gallery or any other photo cataloging program.

Panasonic Lumix Simple Viewer & Photofun Studio Viewer software

If you google your camera model, you will find a location to download software for this camera. The Panasonic Support site is a good starting place..

Kodak has a free photo viewing an touchup software downloadable so you will use their printing service. Another is Picaso by Adobe. Both of these are easier and better than those supplied with camersa. Even Microsoft XP or Vista computer come with a good viewer. Go to Start/Programs/Microsoft Viewer(or some such).

Just go & download the free Google Picasa 3 program. It is a good viewer & downloads images from a wide range of camers.

Lumix Simple Viewer - Copying files to CD

I have "acquired" photographs from my Panasonic Lumix DMC-FX 8 using Lumix Simple Viewer onto my computer, and I am able to view them. However, I need them in a format that I can now copy them onto a CD or attach them as files to emails (without using the "Send by e-mail" function). I am sure this is simple, but is anyone able to help me?

Lz3

If you look at page number 80 in your manual it will tell you how to hook up camera to view pictures under the chapter connecting to a PC, however your computer needs some type of software to read the pictures. On your CD that came with your camera was a version called Lumix simple viewer however you can use any type of photo software. As for the driver I could not find anything for the LZ-3 however for the LZ-2 using windows XP a driver is not required and I suspect this is the case for yours as well.

A Windows computer does not need software to take images from the camera. It also has built in image viewer.
From the Web you can down load free image manipulators such as Irfanview or Picasa, the Gimp to name but three
