Software for multi-cam stop-motion animation / frame grabbing?
  • dtrdtr

    Hi there,
    I'm looking for a software tool that can grab frames from multiple (2) cams at a time. Both DSLR and usb/fw/webcams are under consideration. Anyone know of such a thing?

    Have a look at Smart Shooter http://hartcw.com/

    Works with canon and Nikon and probably the best deal ..or there is Breeze Systems,but it's a bit pricey really.

    We have used both for controlling many(80+) DSLRs for 3D scans. HTH Mala

    thanks man, good tip! looks like we're gonna try and roll our own. needs to be integrated in a smooth workflow in a kids installation. libgphoto2 looks like a good starting point: http://www.gphoto.org/proj/

    You could buy two remote triggers and connect both same switch.

    Sure, but the challenge in this project is much more in the software sequence creation side of things. Ideally there are 3 buttons for the kids: new sequence, grab frame, export.
