How to Hook Up Any Camera With the PS3

The PlayStation 3 (PS3) contains a hard disk drive (HDD) which means that all your photographs can be transferred from your digital cameras, phones or other storage devices. Most modern digital cameras can be connected to the PS3, which can be a handy way to view your snapshots on the television. Once stored on the PS3 HDD, you can organize the photos into folders and view them in an array of slide shows. Your PS3 must be connected to the Internet and also have the latest firmware.
