DSE 5 #2 August 1, 2007 Trunk probably has a more solid answer, but getting LANC-like control via USB isn't all that easy. Even then, with the USB connection where it is, how would you get it to function efficiently? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
bomb420 1 #3 August 2, 2007 Firewire and USB can be done its a matter of the price. Would people be willing to pay +$200 for an indicator on a $400 camera. Making niche electronics is extremely expensive and the economics may not be there. IMHO, the connector is one of the biggest road blocks. Both firewire and USB will not hold up to the stress skydiving will place upon them. You yank the camera out wrong once, and you can no longer download your video to the pc. With that said both options are still being researched. -Trunk HYPOXIC Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
