I currently use Canon's Zoombrowser to remote capture the images as I am
shooting but a friend of mine who has a Nikon tried it and it wouldn't work.

Does anybody know of either an add in to Zoombrowser to make other cameras
work or a another software package that does the same function for all
digital cameras
web links appreciated

Thanks

RobM

Nikon has Nikon Capture NX, but this just supports Nikon DSLR, and a
plug in for PictureProject, PictureProject Coolpix Remote Control:

That list looks to be the RAW supported cameras not ones it can remotely
control.

The list shows first the cameras for raw and then which cameras are not
supported for tethered release

Have downloaded Bibble Pro, but can't see how to make it capture from the
camera as Zoombrowser does whilst shooting

Suggestions and guidance greatly appreciated

HAve followed the setting up instructions for tethering, but nothing comes
into th "Capture" folder from the camera

And camera, lead combination works ok with Zoombrowser and remote capture on
two PC's

Many programs will only allow PTP for remote control.

Have you tired Bibble Labs support forum.

You should include your camera model and your coputer OS and version.
