Post subject: Software controllable (either USB or wireless) fully manual digital cameras
Archived from groups: rec>photo>digital (more info?)

I am looking for a digital camera I can control through my own
software code (i.e. C/C++) with
fully manual control over focus, exposure time, zoom and resolution.
Any recommendations
on camera models within the consumer market ($1000 or less) with
consideration to open
source control software or SDK's would be very helpful.

Thanks,
Ben

Pretty cool piece of software.

Can that fulfill the OP's desire to manually focus the camera through
the software? Seems unlikely since that is a physical thing, not an
electronic thing -- esp. on the one manual focus lens I have around
here somewhere.

Canon 30/5/1 etc can be controlled through the remote
socket. See the Remote Pro stuff from Breeze Systems ...

I agree. The camera would have to be in AF mode.

I must admit I do like the idea of being able to review the
shot immediately on a tablet PC rather than on the LCD on
the back of the box.
