Camera control problems DCR-TRV510

i am currently using a Sony DCR-TRV510 with final cut pro 4.5 and i am having problems with controlling the camera, what happens is that when i go to select firewire NTSC or any option it says uncontrollable, but i can control the device in final cut express 2 and imovie HD. I know the device is compatible with it because it is listed. Does anyone else have this problem? or know how to fix it?

Sounds like a quicktime receipts issue...

IMovie HD 6 Stopped Controlling Sony DCR-PC350

I just upgraded from iMovie HD to iMovie HD 6 and began attempting to import a widescreen format movie from my Sony DCR-PC350 into iMovie HD 6. I've been using this HandyCam successfully through iMovie 5 and iMovie HD... both controlled the camera flawlessly. Now, however, I turned the camera on to the playback setting and used the new iMovie HD 6 to begin rewinding the camera. It rewound perfectly. Then, I tried to import the video off it. iMovie shows a grey clip with the time ticking by but the camera is not playing! So, I stopped the import and noticed that none of the camera controls in iMovie are active... they are all greyed out. Since then I've tried restarting, throwing out iMovie prefs, unplugging everything and plugging it all back in, rewinding and playing the movie on the camera using the camera controls to make sure it wasn't the tape, and nothing seems to be able to make iMovie HD 6 recognize my camera anymore. It's been 3 hours of testing to no avail. Nothing seems to make the camera control buttons to become active again. Can anyone please help? Thanks in advance...

Remote Camera Control and astrophotography for Sony A7(X) and Sony A6000

Hello, Sony makes the best sensors, no doubt about it. Sony makes the best hybryd cameras, that's why i bought a Sony camera BUT ... Astrophotographers are deeply looking at Sony 's camera (especially A7S) because of their astrophotography capabilities but there is a HUGE problem : no software allow BULB mode command, which is very important for astrophotographers. Most of time, astrophotography is some thing like that : 30 pictures, 5 minutes exposure for each picture and we have to add dark frames, flat frames, offset frames and so on. So, if Sony makes a software like Remote Camera Control, why does Sony not include long exposure (over 30s) control in this software ? So come on Mr Sony, don't let Canon leading astrophotographers. Please, add long exposure in your softwares !! Many thanks considering my demand.

I'm going to add that this should be available for ANY alpha series camera that has a bulb mode function in manual control. This includes ,for example, the a5100.

Tethered shooting - more camera controls?

It's great to be able to shoot tethered in Lightroom 3, but could more camera controls be included in the tethered panel? At the very least an image rotation tool would be useful; and controls for camera settings like aperture, shutter speed, ISO, white balance etc would be great.
Right now I keep having to revert to the kludge method of using my camera's capture tool and having Lightroom auto-import the images from a watched folder when I need these controls.

I have the exact same problem using Windows 7 Home Premium, 64-bit dual-core system with 4G memory on an Acer laptop running Lightroom 4.2
Any help is appreciated.

Will FCE HD allow camera control of Sony HC-7?

I own a Sony HC-7 and am unable to edit with camera control using FCE HD 3.0. I have no problem whatsoever with iMovie HD where camera control works fine.
I think it's horrible that ver 3 does not allow it with such a main stream brand as Sony, even if it is a relativly newer model.
I will gladly upgrade to 3.5 if it will support camera control. Does anyone know if 3.5 will support camera control with a Sony HC-7?
Thank you for your replies.

There are only two choices for HD, one ending in 50, and one ending and 60. I am currently using the one ending in 60, but I have tried both.
I have also gone through the Apple store, and it was determined that the only way to capture video from the Sony HC-7 is to capture it manually without without the use of camera control in the software.
The camera works fine with camera control in iMovie HD, but will not work in the Final Cut Express HD product which I had to purchase! I think that's horrible!
Whose fault is this, Apples or Sony's? You can not talk to anyone at Apple about it for free, and of course, Sony tells you to call Apple about it. You know, the usual passing the buck.

User Account Control Problems with Premier Elements 7 32 bit in 64 Bit Windows 7

I found User Account Control Problems in other forums but didn't see much in Premiere Elements, so I hope this helps others who may be having problems with 32 bit programs in a 64 bit computor. When I first got my 64 bit I didn't have problems.
Back in February I bought a Quad Core Desktop with Windows 7 64 bit. Haven't been on the forum for 7 months since I wrote in regarding importing video with the Pyro AV Link (Premiere Elements Tips and Tricks). I was having problems importing video which started after March 28 sometime, as that was the last time I didn't have a problem importing VHS. Took me a few months off and on to find out what worked.
I started uninstalling Windows updates and any programs I had installed back to that point in time. Checked after uninstalling each item. The capture screen would come up on a delayed basis but clicking on capture did nothing. Although no driver is required for IE1394 (so they say) I read where some people using the Legacy driver had fixed some problems, so I switched to the Legacy. Seemed to work great (for a few minutes).
I had even uninstalled and reinstalled PE7 but no difference. Finally I noticed a shield in the PE7 Desktop icon. Thats weird. Never had that before. Just decided to show up after I had done all of the stuff I mentioned. Turns out at some point in time since I've had the computor Windows 7 decided to flag my 32 bit program as misusing the 64 bit system. User Account Control. I never bothered too much with UAC and just clicked on the yes box wen it popped up asking if I wanted this or that to take control of my computor. I tried using the minimum setting for safety reasons, and then finally turned User Account Control off. Bingo! PE7 capture works again and still working.
While I am not recommending that people arbitrarily turn UAC off, this appeared to be my problem. I would recommed that they try turning it off before uninstallin a bunch of stuff. Having a restore point may or may not have been a fix for me. I think one of the Windows Updates caused the problem but I am not going to uninstall any more stuff at this point, I have not been back on the internet or installed any more updates in my desktop. I am going to use my laptop for internet and used the desktop for video.
I am guessing this could be a problem for any 64 bit systems trying to use 32 bit programs. IE: XP,Vista,Windows 7 64 bit. In Vista there is also Data Execution Prevention (DEP) which you can turn on or off, supposedly to prevent misuse of memory (as I understand it), but Win7 either doesn't have it or I haven't found where it's located.
Maybe this has been covered in the forum somewhere and I missed reading it. Hope I am not too confusing. Anyway, whatever feedback you guys have would be great.

John,
    Thanks for your answer, and I did check out the link you suggested. However, I have Windows 7 Home Premium as most people have I think, and the XP program was not available. I started with Vista and now have Win 7. I never could navigate around in XP anyway so am content to just leave User Account Control off.
    Interesting side note to turning UAC off is that my desktop seemed to be using more of the CPUs, where half of them were "Parked" as I wrote in also about 7 months ago when I 1st got my desktop. I am pleased to say that video processing seems to go quicker with UAC off. Have to observe things some more to confirm.
    I just thought if others were having problems after installing Windows Updates and leaving UAC off worked then they could possibly pinpoint a problem.

Control problem

I create a swf by Flash locally which point to a flv in a
remote flash media server, FLVplayback component included, it work
fine locally. Uploaded to FMS3, played without the control problem,
such as Play/Pause, seek bar.
Is it something I need to configure in FMS, or in Flash.
Please advice.
Thanks!

Between version 1.0 and 2.0 the API in the JBCL controls has
changed. We are actually moving away from JBCL completely (please
do send feedback if you have a comment on that) to a Swing and
Infobus standard based library of visual JavaBeans.
You will still be able to use the JBCL controls in JDeveloper
2.0. The best thing to do is to take your 1.x based application
AND the 1.x based JBCL.ZIP file into your new environment. This
way you will be able to continue to use these apps and
components. Taking the 1.x JBCL.ZIP file will make sure you have
the same version of the JBCL library that you were used to in
version 1.x.
Hope this help,
-Roel.

In order to tether a Nikon D7100 into Lightroom is Nikon Camera Control Pro 2 required

I have a Nikon D7100 and I have Lightoom 5. Will Lightroom recognize the D7100 without needing to have Nikon Camera Control Pro 2? If the D7100 is not yet recognized by Lightroom will the Nikon software allow for tethering into Lightoom? when might Adobe add the D7100 to recognized cameras"

No.
The D7100 is not supported for tethering in Lr.

Camera Glitching Problem? Help!

I'm fairly new to AE and watched a tutorial on making a nebula thingy. I made it fine and have had no trouble, but for the last 2 days i have spent trying to fix my camera glitching problem. I have to keyframes for my camera, obviousl ythe start and the finish keyframe. But in the keyframes, my nebula thing, keeps glitching back to previous frames. Im not really good at discribing it, so i just screen recorded it so you could see. I have checked countless times to make sure there is no keyframes on anything else, there isn't. I lookoed it up, some say it could be the "boomerang effect" I tried to chhange the keyframes to linear keyframes (as they are at the time of the screen recording), obviously still glitching. I also tried to change the keyframes to "hold keyframes" as another suggested solution, i still get random glitching. So as a final solution, here i am. Not sure if you need to know the stats of my computer, but if you do here they are (iMac late 2012/early 2013, 3.7 Ghz, i7, 8gb of ram, NVIDIA GeForce GTX 680MX 2048 MB). I have also exported the project to a mov file, the glitches are still there. Also, it is supposed to stop abruptly like that at the end.
Here is the link to the screen recorded problem:
http://youtu.be/dmU0YSfI-Es
Also, im using After Effects CS6, Knoll lIght Factory, Trapcode Particular and Trapcode Shine.
Thanks, Hope someone could help.

Turn off GPU mode in Knoll and/or in AE by setting the comp viewer to Final Quality. that's some sort of buffer curruption, most likely hardware related... also make sure you are not having other programs running. Even a simple notification pop-up from a messenger can cause such strange artifacts because it temporarily takes the reigns...

my iphone 5 32 gb has an camera autofocus problem, please help me solve this

Hi teejayfs,
Thanks for visiting Apple Support Communities.
If you've noticed unexpected behavior with your iPhone camera, start with these steps to isolate or resolve the issue:
Camera isn't functioning or has undesired image quality
If the screen shows a closed lens or black image, force quit the Camera app.
If you do not see the Camera app on the Home screen, try searching for it in Spotlight. If the camera does not show up in the search, check to make sure that Restrictions are not turned on by tappingSettings > General > Restrictions.
Ensure the camera lens is clean and free from any obstructions. Use a microfiber polishing cloth to clean the lens.
Cases can interfere with the camera and the flash. Try gently cleaning the lens with a clean dry cloth or removing the case if you see image or color-quality issues with photos.
Try turning iPhone off and then back on.
Tap to focus the camera on the subject. The image may pulse or briefly go in and out of focus as it adjusts.
Try to remain steady while focusing:
Still images: Remain steady while taking the picture. If you move too far in any direction, the camera automatically refocuses to the center.
Note: If you take a picture with iPhone turned sideways, it is automatically saved in landscape orientation.
Video: Adjust focus before you begin recording. You can also tap to readjust focus while recording. Exiting the Camera application while recording will stop recording and will save the video to the Camera Roll.
Note: Video-recording features are not available on original iPhone or iPhone 3G.
If your iPhone has a front and rear camera, try switching between them to verify if the issue persists on both.

Camera control and Monitor Software

Hi All,
Two questions, quasi-related.
First, does anyone know of any camera control software for Sony? I have a TR27 and an HDR FX1.
Second, does anyone have any experience with monitoring software? Specifically, I am looking at the Red Lightning DV Monitor software. It would be nice to go from the camera directly to the hard drive. Also, is there any software which lets you monitor more than one camera simultaneously?
Thanks. Any input/links would be helpful and appreciated.

They should produce the same EXACT version of the RAW file.
The profiles are meant to give approximately the same rendering concerning tone and color. You cannot render the exact same thing as Canon uses proprietary algorithms which Lightroom cannot use. The profiles just approximate those using Lightroom's RAW engine. Also they will only come close if you use default settings in your camera, so no highlight priority, no added saturation, etc. If you want the exact same thing, shoot jpeg or convert the RAW to tiff in DPP. That said, my experience is that the camera matching profiles come very close to out-of-camera rendering as long as you don't modify the styles.
I say they HAVE to, because otherwise who is right - who´s got the true colors (e.g. Faithful style is supposed to represent colors exactly if shot at 5200K, yet DPP Faithful differs from LR faithful????)
None of Canon's styles give accurate rendering. That is not what they are meant to do. They are meant to be visually attractive, which is very different from accurate. Faithful is not really scene referred correct color. See for some measurements of that on one of the more accurate cameras, the Canon 5D mk II, here. The way to get correct color, if that is what you are interested in, is to shoot a colorchecker chart and use Adobe's free DNG profile editor to generate a calibrated profile for your camera.
Also, is there a way to convert other picture styles one has created into Lightroom profiles perhaps through some use of DNG Profile Editor?
No. Would be neat, but is not currently possible without a lot of manual labor. You can shoot a colorchecker and by comparing the rendering in DNG profile editor to that in DPP visually and using the patch tools, you might be able to sort of get there but that is going to be very tedious. It would be nice if we were able to give DNG Profile Editor a different target than perfect rendering of the colorchecker, because right now, the only way to do it is visual.

Camera Control software

Hello out there,
I own a Canon XL2 and wanted to buy their camera control software but it only supports PC's...go figure that one! Anyway, I was wondering if there was any professional type control software for the Mac and this camera. I need the built in wave form monitor, vector scope and the software to have the capability of inputing the menu settings.
Thanks

The only control software for Canon's I know of is this one here:
http://www.felixtheissen.com/apps/Web-Site/custom%20presets%20editors%20for%20ma c%20and%20win.html
It's beta, unsupported, and actually meant for Canon's HDV (XH/XL-H) cameras.
At least it's free, so you could still give it a try.
Best regards, Oliver

I need advice on my camera app problem

Hi...
I have been suffering with this camera app problem for the last month and a half of having my iPhone 4S. What happens is that the camera is either working fine and I am able to use it for a short while before it completely shuts down with a purple screen, which results to a black screen and then one day I heard this funny click noise almost like the shutter in the camera was going off at the back.
Now what I am left with is I can not use my camera at all or I can use it for like 5mins before it has a "melt" down.
I asked for advice about a month ago and was told to restart the phone. Back up my phone and restore my software. Well I have now done that twice and that hasn't made a difference.
My phone is only 5months old and I haven't dropped it or anything because most of the time it's on a table or in my hand bag.
So my service provider that I have my contract with has said that they can send it in for repair or they can send it in for testing and see if they can find the fault and if not then they will replace my phone with the iPhone 5 with a pay in difference.
So help me which option is the better one to go for with this problem???
Because I am a photographer and I love having a camera and if I don't have my camera on my I resort to my iPhone.
So HELP please.

thanks very much, that's worked
