The latest update further supports the development of these tailored camera applications for e-commerce, speed camera systems and many other forms of content creation. Other enhancements for content creation include the following. (Please check API reference for compatible model information.)

  • Still Image Capture Complete Notification: Provides notification to support constant shooting and efficiency.

  • Preset Focus and Zoom: Makes it possible to save and load the focus and zoom position of the lens to the camera.

  • Contents Transfer Mode: Allows in-camera image (still image/video) files to be acquired remotely.

  • Zoom Speed: Offers high speed and variable support and the ability to change zoom speed remotely.

  • Lock Operation Parts: Allows the locking (disabling) of hardware keys to avoid shooting and re-setup due to erroneous operation.
