Notes on Device Types
| Cameras | Ideally you should select the name of the device in the drop down list that has the camera icon; avoiding any with the WIA prefix. Downloading images from cameras using this method is best to ensure you preserve all the technical data associated with the image, such as the date and time the photo was taken, camera make & model, etc. If you only have the WIA entry for your camera, this will still work perfectly for the image, but you may not get the associated technical data. In such cases, the current date/time is used on the imaging record. |
| Scanners | You should only have a single device listed which will have a scanner icon. When the Acquire button is pressed, it will launch your scanner software. |
