Incidentally, oh oracle
Page 197 of the manual (which I have read from cover to cover) is headed
"Viewing pictures recorded on a tape or live from your camcorder - USB
streaming". Now, I don't profess to be a guru like you but that, and the
following 5 pages that also cover how to capture moving pictures, does imply
to an idiot like me that the camrea can be connected to a computer with a
USB cable. The USB socket on the camera and the USB cable supplied with the
camrea tend to lead towards that conclusion, too. So do the many unhelpful
responses I have had from Sony tech support.
Soryy to have offended your galactic intellect.
