Connect Kodak C663 to Laptop

[norman1066]

Hi,

I own a Kodak c663 camera. Is there any way I can connect this camera to my laptop so i can see myself on my laptop screen and take a picture? (or see whatever I'm photographing on my laptop screen and then photograph it)

Thanks
Norman

Let me make sure I understand you correctly. You want to connect to your computer so that you can take a picture of your image on the screen? Are you saying you want to take a picture of yourselef taking a picture - kind of like pointing two mirrors at each other?

Shooting while connected to your computer is called "tethered" shooting and I don't think you can do it with your Kodak point-and-shoot. Digital SLRs can do it, but only with special software. Canon makes tethered shooting software for some of their point-and-shoots but I don't think there's any universal solution. So if you really want to do this, you're going to have to buy or borrow another camera.
