hey everyone

i own a canon 450d DSLR and currently using a 50mm 1.8lens for my girlfriends 21st party tomorrow.

ive come across a dilemma. the pictures ive taken show up on my camera in the PLAYBACK feature. but when the card is put into a laptop or computer it doesnt show up.

i mean, i shoot in RAW/JPEG format always, and it just the last photos ive taken arent showing up making them impossible to edit,print etc

has anyone else encountered this?

cheers

Try leaving the memory card in the camera and connect the cable from the pc to the camera. Once it detects the camera, open the folder and copy all the content from that.

If you dont have the cable just use any usb camera able (pretty universal these days). At one stage i couldnt find my cable so i just used my ps3 controller cable. Its all the same!!

but when the card is put into a laptop or computer it doesnt show up.

Im guessing you using a card-reader? Try another one.

Have you installed the Canon software for it? I'd use that and see if you still have the same problems. And like Sidd mentioned, are you using a card reader, or putting the SD card straight into the card slot on the laptop (assuming it has one)?

hey everyone thanks for the advice.

i found out the problem was the RAW format.its unrecognisable through USB devices.

so i switched it RAW+L format (jpeg) and it worked fine.

cheers :P

Yep, but if you're using the Canon software included with the camera (it's called "Zoom Browser EX), then the images in RAW format will show. Windows Photo Gallery/Viewer won't show the RAW files at all, as far as I know.
