Adrenalin540 Member 41 posts Joined Feb 2009 More info | Jun 28, 2009 10:19 | #1 I recently purchased a T1i/500 and with all my previous P&S canon cameras I was able to just take the memory out of the camera and do a direct download to my computer. With the T1i this doesn't seem possible...any suggestions? or is this just one of the things I have to accept? Thank you T1i, 10D, SD400, A480 & A2E

hmmm...mine doesn't work that way. I have to use the camera and force the DL...I was expecting to do what you indicated, but it doesn't seem to work. Maybe a bad SD slot, but the compact flash slot worked great...oh I never did format the card so maybe that has something to do with it. Kind of puzzling ... T1i, 10D, SD400, A480 & A2E

What you need is an SDHC card reader that plugs into a USB port. Check with your local electronic store or amazon.com

Yep. The built-in card readers on my older computers will not recognize my 8GB SD cards from my P&S, so I have to use the USB cable.

Check with your local electronic store or amazon.com Here is a starting point with amazon: http://www.amazon.com …=sdhc+card+reader&x=0&y=0 I use the SanDisk Micromate which is shaped different and may not fit in some front USB slots. A short USB extension cord is a very useful accessory. I agree with the USB extension cord.
I bought it always.
