stop motion from images, not direct from camera

[michaelveloz]

Hi there
I'm trying to do a bit of stop motion using Video Studio and a canon g7x mark ii, which I don't think can be 'controlled' by Video Studio to do stop motion proper.

So I'm thinking of snapping the images myself and then wondering if there's a way that Visual Studio can sort of input them and use them in its stop motion tool as if it gathered them itself from the camera?

Or if there's a better way to approach stop motion in VS when you don't have a camera that can be controlled via VS?

Actually, I may be answering my own question. If you go into Capture : Stop Motion, there's an Import option-- it appears you can pull in images stored on your computer, and use those as the input for a stop motion sequence... More details to come!
