Uploading pictures from a camera card is simple.
Taking pictures with a digital camera allows you save and share photographs quickly and easily. Because digital cameras only come with a certain amount of memory, most digital camera owners use camera cards, also known as memory cards, which allows the user to take and save more pictures in a single picture taking session. Although uploading pictures from the camera card to your computer may seem difficult, it is actually a quick and easy process.
Instructions

1. Remove the card from your camera.
2. Insert the card into the memory slot on your computer. This slot will typically be listed as either "smart media" or "SD." The computer will recognize the new software and request the action you wish to take.
3. Choose the upload option. Depending on which operating system you are using, the verbiage will be different. For example, it may request to copy the pictures to a folder, import the pictures, or download and save the pictures to a specific location on your computer. All of these are variations for uploading your pictures to your computer.
