How to see image taken from a digital camera on a computer immediately?

by Kindle 3 on December 15, 2009

What type of cable do I use to transfer images/ photos I take on a digital camera immediately to the computer?
I want to view it immediately on a screen, rather than move the card to a reader.
Thanks

Keen to share this?

Paul Richards December 15, 2009 at 2:48 pm: your camera should have came with a USB cable that you plug into your computer. If you have a memory card slot, take the mem card out and put it in the slot on your computer.

You’ll get other options such as save, delete etc from the same window.
