First thanks for any advice as I have just discovered this software. I could not find posts describing what I want to do so...
A bit of background.
A few months ago I met this guy
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heinz_St%C3%BCcke
who is now 77 and agreed to try and help him with organising his slide collection. He has no money to pay an agency to do it.
Whilst I have a high quality scanner it would take far too long to scan his 100k slides. He might be dead before the volunteer team complete the job!
But he has a projector and I have an old Canon G9. so I have this idea that digiCamcontrol could bridge the gap. But how?
How would I trigger slide load on the projector from a PC, wait say 1 second for the slide to settle, take a photo down the throat of the projector lens and then wait say 4 seconds for the picture to be saved. In my head its easy but...
I hope that I have explained the problem in enough detail and would appreciate the experience of other posters who have probably done the same kind of job.

Thanks for the feedback.
Are you sure that it is the correct link because I could not see the info you mentioned. The guy in the video is managing the process manually and that is not going to work for 100k slides.

The project has taken shape now and all the parts have been purchased. A Raspberry will control the projector and send a signal to the PC to trigger the camera.
I want to use the centre mouse button as the trigger as this is an easy usb interface to the pc.
I can only see a keyboard trigger available on Digicamcontrol.
Have I missed something?

Live View is grayed out. I'm using a Nikon D50, is there some way to set this up so Live view will work?
Thank you.
Thank you.
