Connecting the camera to a computer

Your MINOX DTC 395 saves your photos and videos in a folder named “DCIM/100Media” on your SD card. Photos have the file ending “.jpg” and videos “.avi”. There are two possibilities to transfer the files to your PC: either you remove the SD card and insert it into a card reader or you connect the DTC 395 to your PC with the USB cable included in the scope of delivery.

Transferring your files via USB cable

Always ensure that the camera is switched off before connecting it to a computer. Connect your camera to the computer using the USB cable (included in the scope of delivery) via the USB port. Switch the camera to TEST mode (main switch in the middle). The camera will now be recognized as a removable storage device. Your photos and videos can now be copied to a folder on your PC. Transferring your files via SD card

Always ensure that the camera is switched off before the SD card is removed from the camera, otherwise the files on your memory card could be damaged. Remove the memory card from the slot and insert it into the card reader connected to your computer. Some computers also have an internal slot for SD cards - in this case, insert the SD card directly into the slot on your computer. Your photos and videos can now be copied to a folder on your PC.
