A method and apparatus for communicating acquired digital image data between a digital image capturing device and a computer or computer network. In one embodiment of the invention, a transceiver unit is communicatively coupled to the digital image capturing device for wirelessly receiving and transmitting information between the digital image capturing device and a transceiver coupled to a computer network. The transceiver unit may be either integral with the digital camera or a standalone device which communicates with the digital camera via one or more interfaces. For example, the transceiver unit may incorporate a card reader for receiving flash cards containing stored image data. Alternatively, the transceiver unit may be coupled to the digital camera via a high speed serial interface (such as a Universal Serial Bus or I.E.E.E. 1394 connection) or by means of a data storage device which is inserted into a memory card slot on the digital camera or is hardwired to the transceiver unit.
