PhotoStitch provides an easy way to merge a series of overlapping images into a single,
seamless panorama by automatically arranging the frames in order. You can use this feature to stitch your shots together into one complete 360° cylinder-shaped panorama image.
RemoteCapture
RemoteCapture allows you to operate the EOS D60 remotely and download images to your
computer. RemoteCapture also lets you take pictures using a timer shooting or interval timer shooting function, in addition to single-frame shooting.

When you have problems with driver installation
If you have problems with driver installation, check the items listed below. If the [Add New Hardware Wizard] ([Found New Hardware Wizard] in Windows 2000) dialog box appears while you are checking these items, click the [Cancel] button and disconnect the camera from your computer. Then re-install the driver software.
(1) Does your computer comply with these requirements?
The system has a built-in USB port and it comes with Windows 98 SE, Windows Me,
Windows 2000 or Windows XP preinstalled. (The USB interface is not supported for systems not complying with the above conditions.)
(2) Is the camera connected correctly?
See “Connecting the Camera to Your Computer” (2-2) for more information.
(3) Are the camera and computer set up correctly for communication?
Is the camera’s main switch set to <ON>?
Even when the camera’s main switch is set to <ON>, operation of the Auto power off
function will automatically switch the camera off. To prevent this, set the Auto power off to [Off]. (Refer to “List of Menu Functions” in the EOS D60 Instructions.)
(4) Is there sufficient charge left in the camera battery?
When you connect your camera to a computer, you should use the DC Coupler Kit so
that you can continue to use your camera regardless of battery level.
If you have checked that none of the above problems apply and you still have problems with the driver installation, refer to “Uninstalling the Driver” (9-7) and perform the driver installation procedure once more from the beginning.
Please Register Your Camera!
We recommend you take a moment to register your camera, in order to receive further product information.

Getting Ready to Work with
Images
This chapter explains how to connect the camera to your computer, how to specify the settings for starting software automatically and how to use a card reader (third-party product).
Connecting the Camera to Your Computer
Connect the EOS D60 to your computer with the interface cable so that they can communicate. You can connect the camera while your computer is running. You can also set up your software so that ZoomBrowser EX or a TWAIN Driver-compatible application such as Photoshop 5.0 LE is started when you connect the camera to your computer.
Before connecting the camera to the computer, Windows XP users must select the program to be started automatically (Photoshop 5.0 LE, ZoomBrowser EX or the Scanner and Camera wizard). See “To Start Software Automatically (Windows XP)” (2-6). The connection will only function correctly if the automatic start setting is specified.
Plug the interface cable into the computer.

Plug the cable into the USB port
on the computer.
The location of the port differs
depending on your computer. Refer to the Users Manual for your computer for details.
Plug the interface cable into your camera.

Connecting the Camera to Your Computer
Use only the interface cable bundled with the camera to connect the camera to
your computer.
Push the plug firmly all the way into the socket. Loose connections can cause
faults or malfunctions.
Connect the camera directly to a USB port on the computer; not through a hub.
The connection may not operate correctly through a hub.
The connection may not operate correctly if you are using other USB devices,
excluding USB mouse or keyboards, at the same time. If this occurs, disconnect the other devices from the computer and try reconnecting the camera.
Do not connect more than one camera to the same computer. The connections
may not operate correctly.
While the camera and your computer are communicating, the camera’s LCD
panel may blink and, if you are using the LCD monitor, the image on the monitor may flicker. This is not malfunction.
When you unplug the interface cable from the camera’s
DIGITAL terminal, press the PUSH button on the plug as you pull the plug out.
If you leave the camera unused for approximately 5
minutes while it is connected to your computer, a confirmation message appears on the computer screen asking whether you wish to continue communicating with the camera. If you do not do anything, the connection to the camera is terminated after approximately 1 minute.
