You didn't specify the make and model of your camera, so I'm going to assume it uses a memory card of some type.

The best way to download pictures from your camera to your computer involves removing the memory card from the camera and plugging it into a card reader (either built-in to the computer or connected via USB or FireWire). This is likely to be faster than connecting the camera to the computer, and won't run down your camera's batteries.

Once the card is plugged in, it will appear to your computer as a removable drive. You can use the operating system's drag&drop facility to copy pictures from the card to the computer's hard drive, the same way you copy any other files. Or you can use any photo cataloging program, such as Picasa ( http://picasa.google.com ).

How to trans fer images to a pc from dmc-lz40 to a pc?

With all digital cameras the maker delivers a CD (DVD) with software to install on your computer. This makes it possible to put the pictures from the camera on any computer. On the disk(s) are drivers for all operating systems that need them. (Windows 7 and up do have all drivers for hardware that is certified by Microsoft) And there are programs to download the pictures from the camera to the PC. Sometimes the manufactures also delivers software to organise the pictures in folders and software to view or even enhance the pictures you shot.
When you lost the disk, most of the time you can get the software on the website for your brand. Sometimes you even get newer, updated software and new drivers if needed.
If you can't get software form your brand, you always can install other generic software like Ulead, Pixir, BeFunkey, Gimp, Photoshop express. Or if that is not possible you could install an external memory card reader and download the pictures via de memory card reader.
I could not find Panasonic's Intelli-studio. But perhaps if you register(ed) your camera you can.

What is a card reader?

A card reader is a device that connects to your computer, usually via USB or FireWire. It then makes the memory card appear to the computer as an external hard drive. You can then copy files (including pictures and videos) to and from the computer as if it were any other hard drive. Using one is usually the best way to download pictures from a digital camera.

How do you save the pictures you've downloaded?

The best way to download pictures from your camera to your computer involves removing the memory card from the camera and plugging it into a card reader (either built-in to the computer or connected via USB or FireWire). This is likely to be faster than connecting the camera to the computer, and won't run down your camera's batteries.

Once the card is plugged in, it will appear to your computer as a removable drive. You can use the operating system's drag&drop facility to copy pictures from the card to the computer's hard drive, the same way you copy any other files. Or you can use any photo cataloging program.

Once you've got your pictures on your computer's hard drive, back them up the same way you back up your other files.

How do i delete the pictures that are on the camera to make room for new ones?

Once your Pet's Eye View Camera is connected to your computer via the USB cable, the computer will recognize the Camera as an external hard drive. Simply open this newly recognized hard drive and delete the pictures from that location.

Where do i get the software online to get my pictures uploaded

Get your pictures off your camera to a website, or your hard drive?

I will assume your hard drive, so first make sure you install your camera drivers so computer recognizes your camera when you plug it in.

Download picasa software from google, It is free, and that will import your pictures from your camera to your hard drive, and also let you upload your pictures to the web right from within picasa program.

Transferring pictures

Once the camera is attached to the computer via USB cable, windows explorer treats the camera card just like another hard drive. the same goes if the camera card is inserted into a card reader.

Because of this, the camera can be seen as a listed hard drive, (C:), (D:), (E:)..... With windows explorer open view "Computer", listing all existing drives, plug your usb cable into the computer and the camera. When you turn on your camera, AutoPlay begins. Choices range from import pictures to viewing pictures with whatever programs are loaded into you computer.

If not AutoPlay then just use Windows Explorer. The Camera will appear as "Removable Disk (K:) [(K:) is on my computer]. Opening this disk will show subdirectories "DCIM" and 100OLYMP. Your pictures are in 100OLYMP. They can be higlighted and drug into the folder of your choice on your computer.

View with windows media center, etc. or download Google's free PICASA 3. It can also download ("Import") your pictures.

good luck

We have a goodmans g-shot2025tft and have pictures on hard drive, no memory disc used at the time

Forget the disk --always forget the disk for any camera leave it in the box. Connect the camera to the computer via the supplied USB cable. Ensure the camera is powered on and the image upload control is set [see you manual] The computer will see the connection as another drive. A window will cone up asking what you want to do. Select MOVE to a folder- making a new folder and name it and click OK. The Move command will remove the images from the card completely thus leaving ready for your next session. Let Windows Do The Work.
