digital camera used as webcam... possible??

Is it possile to use a digital camera (Sony Cyber-Shot model) as a webcam?

Seems to me that to make this happen would be only a software issue.

Any ideas?

Well, if there is software available for it, yes.
Take a look at:

to see what I'm doing with a Kodak DC200.

Yes, you can.... go to http://www.katkam.ca/ . They use an Oplympus, I
believe. The pictures are fantastic. But yes, there are software
issues. Kat Kam actually sells the software they use, but it's pricey.
Anyway, check it out, should give you some info.
