I bought a Kodak EasyShare M583 digital camera a few weeks ago and I
have an "issue/complaint" about the way in which the pictures and videos
get transferred to my computer.
When I connect the camera to my computer with the charger/adapter cord,
the only option that I have is to install and run Kodak's EasyShare
software. The software is only set up to automatically transfer pictures
to my computer or to sites like Facebook, etc. The problem for me is
that it is all automatic. It either automatically transfers all new
pictures and videos to a pre-designated folder on my computer, or
automatically shares them with a Facebook or other website. There is no
way to just plug the camera in and directly view the photos and videos
that are on the camera's MicroSD/SDHC card and manually select which
ones to move to what folders on my computer, which ones to delete, etc.
My previous Kodak camera (V1253) would allow me to do this, but the M583
will not.
The only other choice that I have with the M583 is to take the
MicroSD/SDHC chip out of the camera and plug it directly into my
computer with a USB adapter. But, the MicroSD/SDHC is really small and
difficult to get in and out of the camera, and I am also concerned that
by constantly taking the chip in and out of the camera I will end up
damaging it.
There is one other option. That is to first use the camera itself to
pre-select individual pictures and videos to be transferred either to
the predetermined folder on my computer or to a site like Facebook. I
don't want to have to do that on the camera itself. It is hard to do
and it doesn't let me copy one group of pictures and videos to one
folder and another group to another folder. I want to be able to just
plug the camera into my computer using the cord they supply and then
directly access the pictures and videos on the card and manually move,
copy, or delete them.
I have looked at the Kodak support site and it doesn't show any way for
me to do what I want to do -- it's either use their automatic
"EasyShare" software (which I think stinks), or take the chip out each
time and plug the chip into my computer with an adapter. I have also
done Google searches on this issue and I cannot find anything on it or
any active forums where this could be addressed.
Does anyone know of any way to be able to plug my Kodak M583 camera into
my computer with the cord that comes with the camera and bypass using
the automatic "EasyShare" software so I can manually move, copy, or
delete pictures and videos that are on the camera?
That's what card readers are for.
Yes that is a good way, but Ron says the Micro SD card is small
and finds it difficult to use.
