Transferring via the USB cable provided in your kit will probably be the easiest choice for most. Almost all computers these days have USB ports, with exception to some of the more recent Apple Macbook Pro's, the reason for which most of us are still dumbfounded. First, you'll need to find where the connection port is on your camera. This will generally be on the left hand side, beneath either a plastic cap or a rubber flap. Pull away or open up the cover and you'll probably discover a couple of different connectors.
Simply plug into the appropriate one. You're camera should be turned OFF at this point. You'll then need to plug the bigger end into the USB port on your computer.
Usually, these are found on the side of your laptop but now and again and on older computers you'll find them at the back or the back of your PC's tower unit.
Once connected simply turn your Lumix camera on. Your Lumix will read the connection to a live computer and as if you want to open the images via a computer device or perhaps a particular type of software. Once this is selected, the computer will start to read the camera as a new device. The camera will then appear as a drive on your PC of Mac. From here you can go through the shots you like or the ones you'd like to delete and remove appropriately, dragging and dropping into separate folders or the trash on your computer.
Transferring from your memory is a much easier and probably a widely more preferred method, if you're computer has the capability. Most, if not all Lumix cameras will take an SD card and similarly most modern day laptops and Macs — again with the exception of a few Macbook Air's and newer Macbook Pro's, will have an SD card slot within the body of them, so connecting and accessing images, or even files, documents, anything contained on an SD card is incredibly easy.
On the camera, the SD card is usually located to the opposite side that you found your USB connection. Forum List. What's new New posts Latest activity. Search forums. Members Current visitors.

I'm looking for some options to manage a Panasonic video archive and edit files. The HD Writer software does not run on Windows It's possible there is an upgrade but the other problem I recall is it was not really usable due to the size of the archive. I have a PC which doesn't have a great graphics card and potentially access to a Mac sometime later this year I don't know the spec but it's likely to be a middle range machine.
Terfyn Well-known Member. Invest in one of the current range of video editors. I gave up on HDWriter a few years ago when I found that it carried over a lot of useless housekeeping files. Now I use Corel's VideoStudio. I use this as an example of a video editor Not sure if the TM is tape or SD card, either way the VE will create individual shots for piecing together as a video. If you invest in a MAC you will need to buy a Mac based editor. Corel supply a specification for a PC to run VideoStudio and I took a copy to my dealer for him to supply a new PC with better than that spec.
If you are serious about video-editing it's realistically the software that is the limitation. Win10 should be OK, but a new-PC is likely to boost the important areas of spec.
All I've ever known that software to do is freeze and make a control, alt, delete necessary, particularly if you spent hours editing video. Save yourself that journey! I am no expert, but I have got where I want to be with this. This is the curve ball. Do not despair, they are there. Open the files on the SD card There are three folders.
NOW the only reason they are un runnable, or un moveable is that the have not been associated. Meaning nobody told them what software is responsible for playing them, so right click on one and select option "OPEN WITH" check the list of players or select more options for other players.
Once this is done you can build a new folder to store your clips in and either copy or cut the files to it. Open that folder and you can run each file Now called MTS, direct, no problems from there, or import them into your video editing software, I use Roxio Creator It seems once you have done this the first time all future files when you go to the STREAM folder, are now associated with your choice of software by default, so you only need to do it the once initially, so be careful what viewer you first associate to.
Hope this is of help. I got there eventually and I think the camera is stunning in all aspects, though the PDF manual could be a lot more helpful.
Perhaps they want to keep it a secret??? Best advice I could find on the web. At first glance, I don't expect further problems with editing. Thanks a lot!!! The problem which I eventually solved with the feedback here is that the recording format for video had been changed to AVCHD instead of MP4 and these files are stored in a different folder on the SD card.
Change the recording format through the camera menu under the "Motion Picture" menu MP4 files are stored in the DCIM folder with all of the JPG picture files so they show up easily without looking elsewhere.
