Can you Use A Canon Without Sparkoview?

[micr0]

My Canon 60D works with Lets Scan and image grabber but I can't seem to get it to show up in David. How do you use a Canon camera with live view scanning with out Sparkocam? I have the EOS utility software but that doesn't seem to allow David to see the Live stream from the Canon.

Try first the 32bit version. In the past it only worked with that version.

Someone said that it now worked in 64bit but that did not work for me.

Make sure you have this file in the David folder:

EDSDK.dll (version 2.14.0.3)

Connect the Canon by USB to the computer. Start the camera

Select the Canon 60D in the camera setup section of David ("choose video source").

It should be there.

It should work.

You were right. Booted 32 bit David and the camera was there and worked fine.
Now, why not in David 64?

... there seems to be different permission methodes for 32 and 64 bit drivers in Win7 and up ... had this issues with other DLL's and drivers too

Hi micr0

Unfortunately Introduced SDK by canon has lots of bugs.
As usual it is developed to use with 32 bit applications.
By some programming tricks it is possible to use it with 64 bit applications too.

Grabbing images using live view has its own strategy . It depends to programmers and the goal of company thet they want to develop an application to use with this sdk.

I suggest you to use this sdk with 32 bit application s . because its base is 32 bit .
