It manufactures a range of products such as cameras and printers. I really don't want to spend money on the Nikon software for this, it isn't really a very important project, just a favour for someone. Nikon is a Japan-based company that specializes in optics and imaging. So far the closest is Sofortbild, but for some reason liveview isn't working, I have no idea why. I say unfortunately because I have a good freeware tethering program for the PC, DigiCamControl, but can't find something that works properly for the mac. Unfortunately it would have to be with my laptop, a MacBook Pro running the current release of OS-X, since the microscope is in another room to my Windows PC and I don't have room to set it up nearby. What I was hoping to use was some sort of tethering software so that I could do it with liveview, one of the reasons I went for a D90. When I've tried it in the past it's taken a long time to set up each shot using an angled periscope thingy and get a good result. This was easy with my film SLR, an old Canon F1 which had a rotating 90-degree sports finder, but a pain with a body that only has an eye-level viewfinder and a screen on the back. Unfortunately my microscope is an old professional model and an awkward design - fairly high with a vertical camera tube - which would make it very difficult to use live view and a pain to use the viewfinder. Even Nikons own software cannot trigger the shutter of the D90 in bulb mode (and the camera firmware is up to date). With my D7000 attached to the PC via USB I can see the images on the big screen as I shoot.I recently upgraded from a D50 to a D90, and want to use it for some photomicroscopy. This is fantastic! I have it on my HTPC attached to a 50' plasma TV in my recroom / photo studio. and particularly because its free! Linus Ku This is truly an amazing piece of software. Just want to say that I LOVE this software !! I use an older Nikon D200 with a grip and while I can't tether into Lightroom, I can tether into Digicam control and I can turn it on and off, switch lenses and just keep going on my shoots and it never fails me smile emoticon,thank you so much, keep up the great work. Thank you so much for being available to a fresh photography pro like me!! Well done! Tom Elliott Simple interface, great camera control, satisfied clients at my end. DennisonĭigiCamControl saved my bacon!!! Thank you for being there when I needed you. I especially prefer your much larger live view window & histogram display.! Patrick M. Thank you for the upgrade to Nikon's OEM Camera Control utility.

Thank you ! Rob ErtĮxcellent, for the basic tethering I want to do this seems to work just fine, A great alternative and cash saver.

This software is great, amazing that its free, deserves a Paypal donation for sure. Great program, used for focus stacking on the Nikon d90 with awesome results! Ben Price I love it, simple but better then some other.
