Downloading Pictures from Your Digital Camera




Downloading your pictures is as easy as one, two, and three:





* Load the software that came with your camera





* Follow the instructions





* Save the pictures to the computer





It can't get much easier than that! You usually run the software, then connect your camera by a USB or Fire Wire Cable from the camera to your computer. You may be able to use a card reader, or directly insert your media card into a printer; this can be exceptionally fast and exciting to watch as your photos are printed right before your eyes.





Saving the pictures to your computer is the next step; then you can send them to friends and family via emails, post them on the Internet, print them, or do anything else you can think of, the sky is the limit.





If you have your own business, digital photography can help you sell your product online with photos of what you have to offer. Many people make a healthy side income by selling items on websites on which their item can be bid.





One woman in a small Oregon town buys jewelry and statues at yard sales and secondhand stores, cleans the items up, and takes photos of them. She uses a digital camera and posts the photos on the website. The markup she makes is astonishing.





She told me of one instance where she purchased a pair of earrings for .50 at a second hand store and sold them for $149.00. She was astonished as she watched the bids on these earrings increase day after day for over a week, what a profit she made.





This is only one means of putting your camera to work for you. Use your imagination and come up with ideas of your own. Gifts made from digital photographs are always appreciated and can be a lot of fun, as you use your imagination. Children love to make scrapbooks, and digital photography was made for this craft.
