MacroDSLR
MacroDSLR is a digital camera tethering and remote capture application specialised for a macro or time-lapse photography.
MacroDSLR controls ISO, aperture (if lens mounted), shutter speed, exposure compensation, metering and focusing modes, white balance, image quality and format and BULB exposure length. It can preview (with LiveView for some cameras) or capture and save images to selected folder with any file name prefix, count and time lapse, browse captured images and show them in Finder, zoom and stretch them automatically or manually. It can also drive camera lens or external focuser controller for defined number of steps or milliseconds for each frame or rewind to the initial position.
The built-in INDIGO driver is based on ImageCapture API and, in theory, it can work with almost any Nikon DSLR, Canon EOS DSLR, Sony Alpha DSLR-like or mirrorless camera. Not every feature is supported for every camera (e.g. no LiveView or manual lens drive with older Nikon and all Sony cameras), but it doesn’t mean, that such camera can’t be used. As far as this application is based on INDIGO framework, it can use many INDIGO or INDI drivers for focusers for astronomical telescopes which can be easily adapted to control manual focus lenses or macro rails. The drivers for Shoestring Astronomy FCUSB and USB_Focus V3 controllers are bundled with the application.
