this all came free with my Canon G7 not quite as good as the Nikon software but free, did I mention it was free! how come nikon you and canon must have the same margins? Nikon NX is so good but not worth £100 when you have just spent £500 on a camera, then you have to pay for capture as well. Shame cause the Canon software is the same programme type and please note nikon free. The Canon software wont work with Nikon well didn't when I tried. Probably should dig out the software bundled with my old Canon G5 and see if I can use that instead. If it was cheaper then I'd buy it as the time-lapse functionality is something I'd really like to use, but at £130 it's way overpriced, especially as I understand that the old version used to be bundled with Nikon Capture. Also use it for macro which comes in very handy. I use mine for wildlife, amongst other things, but them I am using a D2x / D2hs with a WT-2 wirless that lets me put the camera up to 100 metres away and control it from my laptop. I can see its benefit in shooting models or fashion as well and maybe for shooting the moon at night but what else do YOU use it for?Įscy yes you can set it to do time lapse, its in one of the menus somewhere, cant remember off hand, but it is there. I guess for timelapse photos your just clicking on shoot or can you set the program to take photos every so many seconds or minutes? I'll have to play with it more but it seems really cool how it works and controls the camera settings from your laptop. Sorry to drag up an old topic, but I just got my hands on Camera Control Pro 2 and I'm curious about how those who have it use it. ![]() I use quicktime pro to but them all together. #Nikon camera control pro 2 movie trialI've tried it on a free 30day trial and it was alright, Good for doing timelapses. Perhaps Camera control pro has a command line interface and I just don't know about it. It works great, but isn't available on Windows. On Linux, there is an app called gphoto that will control the d80 from a command line. Is there a way of doing it similarly on Mac though?ĭoes anyone know of any windows software that can be used to control the D80 from a command line or C++ programming interface? If you can do that with Windows camera and scanner wizard then I guess I don't need CCPro 2. That's what appeals to me about it - the storage possibilities. The best part is that you can take as many pictures as your computer's storage capacity allows. If only I could see what I was shooting (the scene) in CC pro 2, I would have bought the software right away. #Nikon camera control pro 2 movie manualMy camera was set to manual when I connected it, the exposure mode is greyed out, so I guess you can't change that in CC pro 2. Thanks Luke! I just tried it and it works great wow it even lets you set the white balance and change menu settings. software/CameraControlPro/20/mac/CCPRO20NSAE. software/CameraControlPro/20/win/CCPRO20NSAE. The link for direct download is as follows: can all be done without touching the camera.ĬC Pro 2 is a cool app, but I'd have a proper think if I were you on whether the benefit is bigger than the cost of the software. Dial in some EV comp, change the WB, bracket etc. The (huge) advantage of CC Pro is in the ability to change settings on the camera from the PC. If you run Capture NX - you can set your download folder as a "watched" folder and have NX do some basic processing on the fly too. If that's all you need to be able to do then you're already set up to do it. #Nikon camera control pro 2 movie PcWith the camera connected to a PC use the camera and scanner wizzard to connect to the camera and you can fire remotely and view the image on the PC as it is taken. It works fine, but you maybe don't need it. Originally posted at 9:59AM, 30 December 2007 PDT The idea of being able to immediately offload photos onto a computer and be able to get a much better idea of how they've turned out sounds like it could be useful in some situations. I'm curious to know if anyone here has used it at all with their D80 or other camera. ![]() For those who don't know, Camera Control Pro 2 is Nikon's software for controlling most camera features from a PC or Mac via a USB or network connection. ![]()
