viewing images on laptop before i shoot the photo
I've just got the Canon Marks 1Ds and a new G4 Powerbook to work with
it. I would like to see on my computer the same image I see on my view finder before I shoot the picture. If you have any knowledge, I will appreciate your input and experience on the subject. Thank you. |

Take the Canon back to the shop and buy yourself a compact. Or this one http://www.dpreview.com/news/0601/06...se330evolt.asp The only alternative is to break out the Canon's mirror and set in Bulb. But that will destroy your cmos. There is software for remote control that allows you to make a preview shot on screen without recording. http://www.breezesys.com/DSLRRemotePro/index.htm Aad |

Have you looked into Canon's Digital Photo Professional add in called EOS
Capture? It won't let you have a live display, but your images appear on your laptop or monitor right away. Since the camera and computer most likely will be close together anyway, connected by USB cable, you'll see your image quickly. Also, you'll have your image data and camera controls available in the DPP program. Hope this helps, Dave "marcosantiago" wrote in message oups.com...

If you look around, there is a hardware solution that is supposed to
work but I have never see anyone who used one. It slides onto the eyepiece and looks right into the camera as you would. Of course, then you can't look inside. That's the tradeoff. But it does what you want. I would check by googling or calling B&H. Maybe someone else will know what it's called. |

Ha ha, you could point a pocket digital at the viewfinder (I've actually done this) but I don't think that's really what he wants. Remote control software and test shots works very nicely; it's an excellent way to refine an image. For framing, just stick your eye on the camera & adjust the tripod. |
