Chapter 1 Downloading Images to Your Computer
This section explains how to download still images and movies to a
Windows computer.
Downloading Images
There are two methods for downloading
images from the camera to your computer.
1. Downloading images without using
image download software such as
DL-10 (GP.6).
The camera is recognized by the computer
as a separate drive and appears on [My
Computer]. Select and copy images.
2. Use image downloading software such
as DL-10 to download all images to the
computer (GP.7).
To use DL-10, DC Software must be installed.
For information on how to install
DC Software, see the “Camera User Guide”.
• Do not turn off the camera or disconnect the
USB cable during image transfer. The files will
not be written correctly.
• Do not use the computer to format the SD
memory card or the internal memory. Use the
camera to format the SD memory card or the
internal memory.
• Be sure to stop the connection before
removing the USB cable.
• The camera can not display pictures that
have been transferred to the computer using
“Windows Photo Gallery” (Windows Vista) or
“Windows Live Photo Gallery” (Windows 7
or Windows 8.1) and then copied from
the computer to a memory card which is
subsequently inserted in the camera.
• Only one Ricoh digital camera can be
connected to one computer. Do not connect
multiple Ricoh cameras to one computer at the
same time.
• When downloading images from your camera,
load a battery with adequate remaining power
in the camera.
• If there is an SD memory card in the camera,
images will be loaded from the card. If there is
no SD memory card in the camera, images will
be loaded from the internal memory on the
camera.
• The software supplied in the camera’s internal
memory can only be used with Windows.
5
Downloading Images Without Using DL-10
Copy files from the camera drive to
1.
the desired destination.
Connect the supplied USB cable to
2.
a USB port on the computer.
Copy files from the camera drive to
4.
the desired destination.
The folders on the camera are organized as
shown below.
The volume name for the camera’s internal
memory is [RICOHDCI].
Connect the cable to the camera
3.
USB terminal.
The camera will turn on. After reading the
data that identifies the camera as a drive,
the computer will display the camera drive
in the [Computer] folder.
• If a file with the same name already exists at
the destination, it is overwritten.
• If DC Software is installed, clear the check
box next to the [Saves automatically when
connected to USB] option in the DL-10 [Option
settings] dialog box.
6
Downloading All Images Using the DL-10 Software
DL-10 automatically creates a folder called
[Digital Camera] inside your [My Documents]
folder. Downloaded images are saved in
folders with the date of each shot, inside the
[Digital Camera] folder. (The files will continue
to be saved in the [Caplio] folder if you were
previously using Caplio Software.)
Set the correct date and time on the camera
before shooting.
Confirm that the camera is off.

If image transfer does not begin, please try
the following procedures:
• Click the [Save] button in the DL-10
window.
• Restart your computer and perform
Steps 1 to 3 again.
• Confirm that the [Saves automatically
when connected to USB] checkbox in the
[Option settings] dialog box for DL-10 is
selected.
• When the [The same image will not be saved]
check box is selected in DL-10 [Option settings]
(GP.10), the total number of files that can
be transferred at one time is 999. To transfer
1000 files or more, transfer 999 files first and
then click [OK] when the dialog box with the
number of remaining files appears. After that,
click the [Save] button in the DL-10 window
or reconnect the USB cable to transfer the
remaining files.
• Do not turn off the camera or disconnect
the USB cable during image transfer using
DL-10 (when the message for receiving data is
displayed).
Connect the cable to the camera

USB terminal.
The camera will turn on, DL-10 will start,
and the DL-10 window will be displayed.
Image transfer begins automatically.
• The images on the computer are renamed
using consecutive file numbers; the file names
assigned by the camera are not used.
• Even when the storage folder is changed, the
file number will be continuous. The number
cannot be initialized.
• When transferring images to a computer
using DL-10, the files are assigned names like
[RIMG****.jpg] (**** indicates the number of
the image), even if [File Sequence No.] is set to
[On].
• For details about DL-10, see P.8.
• For details about the DL-10 [Option settings]
dialog box, see P.10.

Chapter 2 How to Use EC1
EC1 edit detection software can be used to check whether images
taken with the camera have subsequently been processed or
edited.
In order to carry out edit detection using EC1, you must set [Edit
Detection] to [On] in the camera’s shooting menu before shooting and
download the images to your computer.
Using the Edit Detection Function
You can only carry out edit detection using EC1
after setting [Edit Detection] to [On] on your
camera, shooting still images, and downloading
the images to your computer.
Set [Edit Detection] to [On] in the
1.
camera’s shooting menu, and shoot
still images.
For operation procedures, see the “Camera
User Guide”.

detection is not possible.
• By double-clicking an image in the
Thumbnail View, you can open the
image using the linked viewer software.
• If a space occurs at the beginning or
end of the folder name, a message will
appear and no images will be displayed.
• Edit detection is available only with
photographs taken using cameras equipped
with an edit detection function.
• Images for which the [Resize], [Contrast
Correction], or [Skew Correction] functions
have been used during playback mode will be
labeled as images that have been processed or
edited.
• When downloading images to your computer,
please use the method for downloading
shown in Chapter 1. Images downloaded
using different methods may be labeled as
processed or edited images even if they have
not been processed or edited.
For example, when you download images to
your computer using “Windows Photo Gallery”
for Windows Vista or “Windows Live Photo
Gallery” for Windows 7 or Windows 8.1, a
portion of the shooting data is edited during the
download process. As a result, the images are
labeled as processed or edited images for EC1.
• Depending on the software you used to view
images after downloading them, the images
may be labeled as processed or edited images
