Canon PowerShot Support

Dragon Stop Motion supports many Canon PowerShot Gx, Sx IS, and some other models. Known working models are listed on the left.

Canon PowerShots provide the image quality of a still camera and the advantage of live feedback, without the cost of a full DSLR.

Considerations
The main disadvantage of Canon PowerShots is the lack of focus control. Essentially, you have to instruct the camera to auto-focus and then lock the focus for the duration of your scene.

The Canon PowerShots work on all supported versions of Mac OS X (10.4-10.6). For Windows, only Windows XP supports Canon PowerShots.
