Re: access the content of the sd card

None of the cameras I've had so far actually required a transfer program when USB-connected. The program just theoretically (to some degree or another) streamlines the transfer process by hopefully keeping track of what's been transferred before and what's new.

All my cameras just show up as a storage device when I plug them in. You can usually specify how they're to appear - As a camera, drive, whatever. They're "drives" and I just copy from them. I've never had a reason to copy anything back to the camera, though.
