Can't use my camera for stop motion?

[rkstudio]

Hello, I have a Canon SX50 HS digital camera that's (in my opinion) a great camera. I don't know if it's a DSLR or not but can someone tell me if it's supported or not to make stop motion videos? Also, why not??? Really??? My webcam works with stop motion but my Canon camera can't? I paid 500.00 for a camera that I can't use with VS Ultimate X6? If not, whats so Ultimate about it?

Your camera is not a DSLR camera and cannot be used to take Stop Motion pictures since it cannot be controlled by software as far as I could determine. You can of course take "Stop Motion" images with your camera and import those into VS X6.

BTW, the only thing special about your camera is the high zoom otherwise it is just another digital camera.

rkstudio,

Not a software option but here's a hardware controller for your camera model.
