Canon Rebel XTi Software question

Hi all . My husband just got this Camera for christmas . He is fine
with the camera . He is very familiar with digital slr photography . It
is me that needs the help . I am the computer person and download all
the photos . I have loaded zoombrowser on and also the ESO utility . I
transfered the first phots no problem . My question is this . The Eos
manual says you can transfer photos to the pc by downloading all images
in a single operation or you can download images by operating the
camera . Why have the two options and how do they differ . The menu on
the camera says you can select image to dowload or download all . I am
just confused and do not know why you have the choice. Sorry if this is
long I did not know how to ask in a shorter format . Thanks to anyone
who can help. I always ask why when given choices

Fran,
Transfer one image (the one you have selected) or, all of them.
Its a handy choice, depends on needs and circumstance I suppose.
Lets say you've already downloaded them all, but accidently deleted
one.
What would you do ?

Yes I can see how being able to transfer 1 photo or all photos from the
camera to the Pc would be a good thing to be able to do .The EOS
utility gives you the option to transfer all images or the second item
in the list is to pick the photos you want to download. It just makes
me wonder why use EOS if you can do everything from the camera.

Choices are good.
Lack of choices is bad.
