How do I Capture From a Canon HG20?

By Technology Last updated Monday, May/20/2024

1). Plug the USB data cable into the USB port on the back end of the Canon Vixia HG20.
2). Insert the opposite end of the USB data cable into a USB port on the computer.
3). Power on the Canon HG20 and the computer states it has detected a newly connected video camera.
4). Click "Start," "(My) Computer" and double-click the video camera icon. A window loads with all of the video files currently stored on the Canon HD20's internal hard drive.
5). Click-and-drag the video files from the open window onto the computer system (you may copy the files to any location on your computer system, ranging from the desktop to any other folder).
