Most cameras are very picky. Unless the image is saved in exactly the right format (not just JPEG - there are options like progressive or interlaced as well), and in a directory structure that exactly matches how the camera writes to the disk, it won't find the image. Computers are a lot more flexible in that regard. -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List PDML@pdml.net http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net to UNSUBSCRIBE from the PDML, please visit the link directly above and follow the directions.
