Hi Raymond.
I’m interested in forking your application under open source licensing for free.
Do you have any problem on me creating a public version control repository on Google Code or GitHub?

Thanks!

Thanks Trevor.

I have tried all your suggestions with no luck. It looks like it is a Windows 7 limitation as I have tried it on two different PC running WIndows 7 both have failed.

Hi Mitchell
I can’t help specifically as I’m on xp with a D40, but there are a lot of comments about this bracketing issue on win 7. When in the program, click help? (next to the bracketing stops field) to read them.
There might be something there that helps. I wonder if you have to set the same bracketing parameters in the camera as in the program before you shoot with the software. Good luck.

Same here.

I have the D60 and installed Camera Control v5.2 on Windows 7 all works except for exposure compensation (The positive values work but not the negative) so this effects the bracketing. The main reason I have been using C.C is for the bracketing.

This was working on Windows XP befor I upgraded

PLEASE COULD SOME ONE HELP ME

I have a D3000 and installed 5.2. For some reason, I cant control the exposure compensation for the lower stops. It does change to the plus ones just not the minus ones. exposure bracketing does work but since it lower ones does not work, bracketing isnt working either.

Thanks, just what I was looking for and works perfectly. I have Nikon D80 and it is not supported other places. You need a PayPal “donate now” button on your site. I’d like to be the first to donate $10!!!

Hi,
just tested your SW with my Nikon D3100 under Win 7 64Bit yesterday. After a few hickups it runs fine. Only downside I see so far is that a BULB is not supported.
But a great SW, keep up programming.

Just checking in to tell you that the program works excellent with my D3100. I can set everything from the pc, except the “push external viewer to display image” (but i don´t care).

It would be awesome if the histogram is also displayed.

Keep up the good work!

Try and check if the camera is being recognised by the pc first. You should see the camera folder in My Computer. If you can then start photobits, then turn camera on. Wait 30 secs or so. Windows may see the camera first, so dismiss any pop up window about opening folders etc. Then photobits should see the camera, you’ll see some blue text saying ‘D200 connected’. You may also have to click ‘start tether’ (top left ) to get the camera to be recognised. Good luck !
