Transferring Kodak Easyshare photos while traveling I own a Z700 and like it very much, but I always use my home laptop for photo uploading, editing, etc. I want to buy the C875 for my daughter who will be abroad for several months. Is it a problem to upload Kodak Easyshare photos for online blogging if you use different computers while travelling? In other words, do you need to use a computer that has the proprietary software? Or are the images stored in JPEG and thus accessible by any software (Picasa for example). Thanks.

Thanks for the response. In the interim from posting and now I actually purchased a Canon as the gift, but I found a lot of solid information about photo formats and more at CNet.

Just go to Kodak website and update the firmware. The new firmware will allows user to bypass the Kodak Easyshare software. Just plug the cord into the computer and Windows will recognizes the camera as a storage device. Hope that helps.

please give a link cause I have the same problem and I can't find that part of the website anywhere.

http://www.download.com/8301-2007_4-9752557-12.html?tag=blog.3Try this link for starters. I think you will find, as I did, that as long as you can plug in your camera (carry the small cable that comes with the camera) or pop out your memory card, you will easily be able to upload your photos while traveling. Most internet cafe computers have programs that will recognize jpeg files so it isn't so important to have the Kodak software after all. The whole process is a lot less confusing once you actually do it. Hope this helps.

The images are stored in a JPEG format, and to the best of my knowledge, are accessible by most software.

I don't use kodak easy share. I just download my picture into the computer and email them.

I actually use cloud services like Google Drive or SkyDrive (apps) to view. As far as a straight hardware to hardware transfer, there is a USB to SD card adapter on Monoprice. Or you can Google USB micro to SD adapters or OTG Cable (USB micro, of course). When you insert an SD card, it will open the NMI app which will ask you if you want to browse the SD card. What kind of camera do you have? I use a Nikon D5000, which takes an Extreme SD and it works fine. Hope that helps. Monoprice is the best site by far for any sort of cables, adapters, etc. I use them exclusively.

You can use the same easyshare software but this camera takes too long to process between pictures. I wouldn't recommend buying this camera.

Many cameras do not have this card. In fact, I am a recipient of Hurricane Sandy. The adjuster had to get a special unit to fit this card in so that he could record the pictures of his computer. He had the unit to do this in his mobile office. I notice I could not buy this card locally, so I purchased it through Amazon. Thank goodness for Amazon. I purchased the camera in a camera store and it is a wonderful camera. I have moved and to go back there is 35 miles. I do not have trouble getting pictures from the Kodak machines in the stores. You are correct, it is not what most other cameras use, but I am satisfied with it.Hope this answers you question Many cameras do not have this card. In fact, I am a recipient of Hurricane Sandy.

I just finished transferring all of my photos to digital copies and am very happy with it. It does take a little getting to know the driver and settings since it defaults to quick scan for ID copies in business environments.

I used it but like you did it not work for me and I sent it back I am surprise they are still making it I recommendation is send it back for refund if possible I think if memory serves me correctly Kodak made it but it been such long time I could be wrong I know I tried to used it and look for drivers and could not find any that work with my Windows Vista IBM, I hope this answear your concerns . I think it more trouble than it is worth you might hire company to transfer for you and it may be less trouble as well Ok have good day

Thanks for all the answers. Actually, I googled this and found out I could just drop and drag files using the Computer screen and that it working great to transfer the photos.Thanks again.

Usually camera companies use the same cable (and software I guess) to download your pictures into your computer. I ended up buying a Cannon and found that the cable of my previous Cannon was compatible so I did not have to buy a new cable. I am imagine the same is true for your Kodaks. Hope this helps.

If you are home and you have "paired" your camera and home modem, you can send your pics/videos through your modem/Canon. However, if you are traveling and staying in a hotel, you cannot send your pics directly to FB, Picasa, Shutterfly, etc....... you must bring your computer/tablet with you (it has to have been previously paired). So...if you are thinking you can transmit your pics directly when you are on vacation, let me clearly state: you can NOT. Canon should make that clearer to customers before they buy the camera. Your camera will not upload to FB, etc. (ex-as your smartphone would do easily) . I hope that helps; please let me know if you have any questions.

You shouldn't have to. I transfer multiple pictures from multiple cameras and cards with no issues.

I also remove the memory card and click it into my laptop to transfer the photos. I do all editing with Easyshare software that was already on my laptop from a previous camera. Of course the software doesn't come with this camera, which I think is ridiculous. I didn't get a remote with my camera so I can't answer that part of the question.

Probably not. Since then, I purchased the EasyShare Z915 and upload photos via usb port.

What kind of camera. I have a Kodak Easy Share C-180 and on the bottom is a threaded receptacle that would accommodate a tripod of sorts. I could find a way to mount that camera to the end of the pole, but the real problem, at least to me, is how do I snap the pic.? The pole to me is very versatile and I plan to use it painting the peak of my house and from what I have judged, so far, is when it is fully extended, it doesn't represent a stable of stiff tool. It's kind of weak in the extension. I will overcome that by using good ole duct tape and tape a broomstick at the weak point. Hope I helped and good luck. What kind of camera.

When I put in my software, it messed up my old kodak software, it does not put the pictures you are downloading into the kodak software so you can crop it and do all the stuff I just to be able to do but it is a nice camera and everything you might need is in the box, unless you want a tripod, it does not have that, other than that I am happy with mine, if I could just figure out how to put a picture in the software to "fix" it, crop it etc then I would be super happy

I would Google for that info. I had the Easyshare printers till they quit making full pictures but half pictures. Besides, I went to the Epson, which is much easier and cleaner. Pictures are water resistant. You don't need a computer, just use a SD card and done. But it does have USB port connection ability.

Its basically the only way to transfer your images. Once you do it it is done. They wear out but the machine is not as much as others. Once you have this machine this is what it uses. I would suggest doing what I did. Transfer the pics using as many holders as you need and be done. Good luck.
