Hi All
Just started in the digital game so not up to speed yet.

Dave,
Forget the Canon software...........it's junk and doesn't do the job, takes far too much time!
Save yourself alot of grief and buy a card reader, download directly from the card NOT THE CAMERA.
You'll be pleasantly surprised just how fast and easy it is.

OOOOOOOOPS, I forgot to mention using Irfanview to download your images to and then you can open them in your "external" editor or save them as is for future work. This is one dynamite program and best of all IT'S FREE.........http://www.irfanview.com

It also supports slide shows and screen saver options, all built-in ready to rock 'n roll.

I use the excellent Breeze Downloader. You need the version 2 beta, which is available at http://breezesys.com. It will download straight from the camera (very slow), or from a card reader (much faster). Highly recommended.
