Is there a pice of software around that dose this?

Sorry to say that none of canon's powershot cameras were designed to be web cams. For $999 you can get a canon vc c4 or otherwise just go to walmart and buy a $20 logitech. I have heard of websites using the es50 or es55 ( both are out of production).

OK
Thank you for your response.
Is it possible to take a picture from the PC, using a usb cabele, a "remote " function?

[shannon]
