Cameras

You may use any camera you want with E.L.M.I.

Even the "pocket.-consumer-cameras" with fixed lens can be used for documentation AND measurements. The power of the lens can be input using the softwareinterface shown below.

Due to the fact, that CANON provided us with the DLL interface to their cameras, direct access to Canon EOS cameras is implemented. Live View, Pre View (a real useful "workhorse") and direct saving of the image taken down to the database using a unique time code for error free identification are already available in the current version of E.L.M.I.

E.L.M.I. is strongly independend of any manufacturer. Therefore it is possible to input your own camera constructions (self-made optics) as you see in examples on this site.
