Is this normal for my kodak easyshare C613?

Question

when i hook it up to my computer and i turn it on, the shutter thing doesnt open and the screen stays black. if its on before i hook it up, the screen turns black the second the usb cables in the computer. is this normal and if it is not, what should i do?

Answer 1

Yes that's completely normal. It's funny because I asked myself that same question. The reason that the screen is black is because it is loading and transferring data. When it turns black it's conserving memory in order to get the right details over to your computer. If the screen was on, multiple, various actions may happen that may jeopardize the saved data. It's just concentrating. So do not fear.
