Getting files from the Canon 7D for editing

If you plug in your camera via the USB cable to a Mac, it should appear as a hard drive on your desktop. If this doesn't happen, and your cable is plugged in, etc., try using the Image Capture application (included on all Macs). Use Spotlight to locate it or go to the Applications folder > Image Capture. You should see the 7D listed, be sure to save the files to your fire wire drive. You can also get the files with an SD card reader, available on the 8th floor of 55 West 13th St./Arnold Hall.
