Hi,
Can DSLR focus be used on a Mac?
Where do I get the program?
Can someone give me a CRASH course in how to use it?
I have one day left before vacation?
Thanks,
Ron

Ron,
You can get it here.

Don't know about a MAC? But I supose if you run virtual PC you could.
Its a neat program for sure. You will need either a paralell or serial cable to enable it to take exposures longer than 30 sec by acsessing the bulb mode on the camera thru the software. You have to make one or order one. The info is on the website.

Thanks Craig,
I just went to their web site and the program isn't made for the Mac.
Guess I'll have to go to plan B? What ever that is?

Thanks Jake,
I guess I'll have to wait until after vacation! My son's laptop has an earlier version of software, so we will have to upgrade to the later version.
