Camera types

Hi, does Sharpcap recognise Canon cameras? When I connect my Canon 800d Sharpcap does not recognise it, is there a setting for it? I know Sharpcap recognises many other makes.

Hi,

DSLR cameras are not supported directly. There are some tools out there that provide either an Ascom driver or a direct show driver for certain DSLR cameras – some people can get these to work with SharpCap, but in many cases they are unreliable.

Cheers, Robin
