How do I get videos from my SD870IS?

Question

How do i import videos to my computer from it?

Answer 1

The Canon PowerShot SD870IS is a still camera that happens to take highly compressed video.

Take the memory card out of the camera and use a card reader to copy the video clips to your computer.

Hey DOGMAN,

Depending on what kind of computer you have, you should be able to plug in an USB cord from the camera to the computer to do so, you will also need to install the software that came with the camera.

But if you're using a Mac computer, there is no need to install the software, all you do is attach the camera to the computer via USB and power up both camera ans computer, and imovie opens up.

If you don't have an USB port on your computer, then you can buy a USB card, and install it into the computer.
