Is it possible that I can turn vivitar 3615 digital camera into a PC web camera ? I have a new SAKAR extendable tripod, S video cable, happauge TV tuner card. if this is possible to do this, what software can I use to get started ?

You need a USB wire that connects your camera
to your computer.

Then use a software called AMCAP by Microsoft
It's a really basic software, alternatively
I think you could also use Netmeeting

thanks for the software but I am having a small problem with that software I plugged up my camera via through USB but AMCAP couldn't pick it up, xp knows my camera is there but not AMCAP.

Doesn't work, no?

It works for both my no-name webcam as well as my
Sony DCR-HC40E camrecorder.

Doesn't Windows XP have a built-in feature for detecting and installing usb-connected cameras as webcams?

If so, all you'd need is the cord and a fully updated copy of Windows XP.

Yes it does windows xp sp1 and the latest windows xp sp2 can detect cameras as web cameras with the cameras editing software or not.
Also I have had windows xp pro sp2 CD for over a year now and I keep it updated but like I said in my last post, that,software can't recognize my vivitar 3615 camera with a USB cable connected. does anybody else have a another suggesrion for software other than amcap ?

I know what you're thinking.
You can't do it. Most digital cameras simply represent their photo space as a generic USB block device. Sorry.
