Re: Does Canon Powershot use battry power when on USB lead

I just checked mine and it draws only 2 mA of current at 5 VDC when
connected to a USB 2.0 port on my PC. This is probably not enough to
actually run the camera, but may power the USB interface circuitry inside. I
find that with the speed of the download of pictures with USB 2.0, I'm not
bothering with using my card reader, but instead just plug in the camera and
download using the PC control. While it's kind of cool to let the camera
control the download by pressing the bright blue button and having all the
shots be previewed full-screen as it goes, using computer controlled
download without the preview is way faster. Either way is quite fast with
USB 2.0.
Bye.
