You’ve probably read the tutorials on how to get digital camera pictures transferred to your PSP. If you are like me, by the time you’ve transferred the photos from your camera to your PC, connected your PSP via USB, and then transferred the photos to the “photos” folder on your PSP, you’ve already lost interest. There is a simpler way to get photos on your PSP. This secret trick came to me while in meditation with the Gadget Fruit Goddess. You can go from camera to PSP in one easy step. Here’s how:

The Sony Cybershot DSC-U60 is an older model 2MP camera that uses Memory Stick to store photos. The PSP uses Memory Stick Duo, so using this handy adaptor I removed the Duo card and inserted it directly into the PSP.

Every wonder what that “Digital Camera” top level folder on your PSP was for?

Thank you, Gadget Fruit Goddess! With this epiphany, I can take digital pictures and view them on my PSP instantly!
