[AG-TECH] Serial Connections between Sony EVI-D30/D31 Cameras

[Ivan R. Judson]

Just to be complete, those cables and either:

Sony http://www.sony.co.jp/en/Products/ISP/docu_soft/#Soft
Canon http://www.usa.canon.com/support/files/vcc3.html

should allow control of the cameras from the PC.

--Ivan

PS -- The latest canon/sony cameras might have new features, check the cd
that comes with them (if there is one).
