PC software to connect your camera
The basic software that comes with your digital camera
will generally let you upload images from the digital
camera to your computer. This is usually proprietary
software so you can't download to just anyone's computer.
Depending on the program, you can view thumbnail pictures
first and then decide which pictures you want to download
in their entirety. Also find out if you can download
your pictures en masse or if they have to be transferred
one at a time.
Digital Imaging software
Better software bundles also include basic image-editing
software. The programs you get are often limited versions
or "lite" versions of more profession image
editing programs.
Good examples of this are Adobe PhotoDeluxe or Adobe
Photoshop Elements. These are cut down versions of software
which costs hundreds of pounds. Unless you are really
planning to do a lot of image manipulation then these
versions will probably be OK.
Album Software
Some bundles will include a photo album software, Photoshop
Elements also has the ability to create a web based
album with thumbnails etc. You can even watermark your
work to ensure that nobody else can use it. You can
also download free album creation software such as Jablum
which is very good [download
