I take the card out of my camera and put it in the reader. The card goes in
one end and the other end is a USB plug. It looks similar to a flash drive.
Stick it in a USB port and click on My Computer. It will show Removable
Drive (letter), or something similar. You open it up and you can see
thumbnails of your pix. Open the folder list in the left pane and just
drag the pix to a folder of your choice.
You can delete the pix from the card in one shot as well if you wish.

How do these things work? On batteries? How can a card reader cost so
little? This is in lieu of the camcorder? If I plug it into the
computer, won't I get a popup that says new device detected? And then
won't it ask for software if it doesn't recognize it?

I have a Canon ZR70MC camcorder and I used it to take some still
pictures which are on an SD disk. I would like to transfer them to my
computer but I need a Digital Video Solution Disk. I can't find this on
the Canon Website. The manual is there but no disk. Anybody know where
I can get this software?

You don't need any software. Get a SD card reader. Put the memory card
in it and plug it into a USB port. You can find them for well less than
$10:00. I use them for my camera and my cell phone.
Try eBay or this Google search:
