Do have him show you, but if you can, have him show you and let you write down each of the steps as you do them. And check to see if there is a youtube tutorial or ehow sort of instruction on it. In my experience, getting the pictures from the camera to the computer is very easy once you've seen it and understand it. You'll probably have a cable that you'll plug one end of into the camera and the other end into the usb of your computer. The camera will usually start the process of downloading right away. The key for you will be knowing where the camera will put the pictures. If you can, see if your hubby will put a shortcut to that file on your desk top so that when you look at your computer screen, you'll see a link to the file that you can just double click on to view the pictures.
