Free open source tethering software for Nikon/Canon DSLR cameras

cedric.walter@gmail.com (Administrator) — Thu, 23 May 2013 21:29:53 +0000

digiCamControl is a free, open source program that gives you full control over Nikon cameras from you Windows PC. It supports tethering, live view, remote triggering, direct image transfer, controlling multiple cameras simultaneously and even offers you to control the camera from your tablet or smartphone. And support for Canon cameras is well on its way.

This is the first full release of digiCamControl , a free program that gives you full control over your digital cameras from your Windows PC. Currently almost all Nikon DSLR's can be controlled, and support for Canon cameras is under development. The software is free to download and use.

Connect your camera to the computer with a USB cable and fire up the program, and you have full access to almost all camera controls. You can have the viewfinder image live on your computer monitor and you can focus and expose manually or automatically and see the result directly on your computer screen.

The program supports almost all digital Nikon SLR's plus quite a few other cameras, and enables you to utilize almost all your camera's features remotely. Apart from shooting single frames, digiCamControl also offers sequences, bracketing, time lapse and focus stacking.

You have detailed control over the image transfer, storing, naming and many other aspects of your shooting session from within the program.

Once you have set up your camera, you can control it wirelessly using a smartphone or a tablet. Both iPhones, iPads, Android devices and other devices that can run a web browser are supported. You can even use a second remote computer (Mac, pc, Unix or whatever) to control and release the camera.

digiCamControl is developed by Duka Istvan and is distributed as open source with both the finished program and the original source code (C#) freely available under the GNU license. You can read the history of digiCamControl here: http://digicamcontrol.com/history

Java TimeZone

cedric.walter@gmail.com (Administrator) — Thu, 23 May 2013 20:58:04 +0000

TimeZone represents a time zone offset, and also figures out daylight savings. Typically, you get a TimeZone using getDefault which creates a TimeZone based on the time zone where the program is running. For example, for a program running in Japan, getDefault creates a TimeZone object based on Japanese Standard Time.

You can also get a TimeZone using getTimeZone along with a time zone ID. For instance, the time zone ID for the U.S. Pacific Time zone is "America/Los_Angeles". So, you can get a U.S. Pacific Time TimeZone object with

TimeZone tz = TimeZone.getTimeZone("America/Los_Angeles");

You can force the Java Virtual Machine to use a specific TimeZone by adding a –D to its start parameter

-Duser.timezone="America/Los_Angeles"

In this example any server located outside the U.S. Pacific Time zone can still create timestamp like it would be in the U.S. Pacific Time zone.

All the available TimeZone from java.util.TimeZone are listed below for your convenience:

Apache POI list of Excel supported functions

cedric.walter@gmail.com (Administrator) — Mon, 15 Apr 2013 09:33:02 +0000

The Apache POI Project's mission is to create and maintain Java APIs for manipulating various file formats based upon the Office Open XML standards (OOXML) and Microsoft's OLE 2 Compound Document format (OLE2). In short, you can read and write MS Excel files using Java. In addition, you can read and write MS Word and MS PowerPoint files using Java. Apache POI is your Java Excel solution (for Excel 97-2008). We have a complete API for porting other OOXML and OLE2 formats and welcome others to participate.

The Appthority® App Report

cedric.walter@gmail.com (Administrator) — Fri, 05 Apr 2013 19:56:11 +0000

The Appthority® App Report for February 2013 provides an overview of the security risks behind 100
free iOS and Android apps. Appthority examined the differences between the Android and iOS app
ecosystems; compared app behaviors across five popular app categories (business, education,
entertainment, finance, games); and looked at the developers behind these apps.

Report Highlights

The vast majority of free apps send and receive data to outside parties without encryption.
96% of total apps share data with advertising networks and/or analytics companies.
79% of the top 50 free iOS and Android apps are associated with risky behaviors or privacy
issues. Overall, iOS apps exhibited more risky behaviors than Android apps.
Entertainment apps were the worst offenders out of the top five categories, with the highest number of apps that track for location and share data with advertising networks and/or analytics companies.
While 14% of iOS apps had access to a user’s calendar, none of the Android apps had similar access.
More than half of the total apps track for location by accessing the device GPS or using other location tracking methods.
More than 80% of apps across categories come from different unique, individual developers.

What’s NEW?

Better administrator UI,
Inline description have been improved,
Online Wiki has been updated
Better default for “Returning Visitor” now set to TRUE… This is a very important feature that I highly encourage you to use (ie: set it to true). What it does is to show the message to returning visitors only. The first time a user accesses your site the message is not shown. If the user comes back within a 28 days timeframe, the message is finally presented. To prevent the balloon from appearing once the app has been added to the home screen, remember to set also apple-mobile-web-app-capable to true.
