Canon Cameras

How do you upload pictures from a Canon EOS Digital Rebel XTi camera?

My brother let me borrow his Canon EOS Digital Rebel XTi camera for a trip and I'm not sure how to upload them onto my computer. My friend was telling me something about having to take out the memory card or something. Does anyone know?

1. SD card of if you have the USB connector right to the PC
2. Ok, i have the rebel XT, what i do is i plug it into my comp, then i open my computer, then look for something that says Cannon Digital Rebel, open that, then drag and drop were you want them (i use phanfare to host pictures)
3. your computer should pic it up if you use xp? put disk in install software first then put camera usb cable in pc put in camera if windows don't find it reboot with it plugged in then go to my computer and see if there is a removable disk if so open it your pictures will be there copy and paist them to my pics ps never delete photos using computer format card with camera menu good luck
4. You have a CF card in that camera, not an SD. If you have the cable that comes with the camera you can hook it in through your USB. If you dont have a cable and dont have a CF card reader, you are out of luck.
5. I suspect your brother does this kind of thing with his camera all of the time and probably has everything necessary to do it. You should ask him how he does it and what equipment he uses which is information he will probably share with you. He'll have the software, the USB cable that will allow you to attach the camera to the computer, or a USB card reader which will allow you to download your images. No sense you buying more equipment like this if he's got it since it's his camera. If you're on vacation and your card is full and your brother is not around, take your camera to the nearest store to you that sells cameras or computers and buy an extra flash card. When you get back from your trip give him the extra flash card as thanks for letting you use his camera. I suspect he will be happy to download your images into his computer and then make CDs for you.
