I've been searching and searching and can't find-
What software can you get that allows you to hook your camera (in my case a 20d) right up to your PC (laptop) and as you take pictures you can view them right away on your PC? I don't mean downloading it from the camera - I mean I take a picture and it pops up full screen right away...not just a little thumbnail.

Sorry if this is a stupid question. I've seen this done just haven't found the software. Thanks in advance!

This is useful during a studio portrait session - so you and your client can see the shots and know when you've gotten enough - because viewing them on the camera doesn't cut it.

I don't have a 20D but I do have a canon rebel xt and it came with software to do that on the CD (called EOS Capture, I think). I would imagine that the 20D would have come with something like that too. Take a look at the CD that came with the camera.

I dont think the 20d came with that software.. I know my 300d did not.. any ways I have used this software in the past.. and still use there breese browser software.. I think its worth the money..

I would like to strike the above words from the conversation "I know my 300d did not" and replace them with "I think my 300d may not of, but I didn't really look"

your 300d came with it - at least the US versions did. mine is called 'remote capture'

really.. humm.. maybe I should look again then before I post that.. :) but I WAS pretty sure the software that came with it was mostly drivers or just correction software.. but I have een known to be wrong in the past, and probably just didn't dig in the software cause I was just so excited about the camera... :)

Cause I couldn't tell you what software came with my 5d at all, since by that point I had just about every suite available for photo editing I needed.. :)

Yup, got it. It works well, albeit sorta slow.

Yeah the 20D comes with EOS Capture, though I think it may stop working if you install the Canon EOS utility.

Thanks everyone. After further investigation it DID come with EOS Capture but it didn't get fully installed which is why I didn't see it before. I'll have to reinstall that. Thanks again for your help!
