Using the TWAIN Function
If you use the TWAIN function, you can download, display and edit images
recorded in the camera directly from the application software. However, the
TWAIN function can only be used on application software that is compatible
with TWAIN.
Note
• In general, most graphic application software is compatible with TWAIN.
• The non-compressed still images are saved in a specific TIFF file
format. The generic graphics applications therefore may not open
those files when you transfer them from the camera to a PC by using
the RDC-i700 Explorer Plug-In. In this case, use the TWAIN function to
open the TIFF files. The images transferred from the camera to a PC
by using this TWAIN functon will be converted to the generic TIFF
files.
For Windows
This section explains how to use the TWAIN function on a PC running Windows.
A Check that the camera is properly connected to the PC, that the
camera is turned on, and that the camera’s mode dial is set to
[ ].
B Start up the TWAIN-compatible application software on the PC.
The instructions given here are based on [Adobe Photoshop] application
software.
C Select [TWAIN_32...] from
the [Import] menu under
[File] menu.
The names of the functions in
the menu may differ depending
on the application software. For
further details, refer to the
operation manual for the
application software.
