Is it possible to hook the SX 540 HS to a laptop as a webcam? And if so, what cables are needed?

 

Thank you!

Greetings,

The software is still in beta release.  Your camera is not listed as supported, but you can try it if you wish.

Cable:  Standard USB on the computer side.  Mini-USB type B on the camera side.
