Hi,
Is there a way to programmatically access a DCF-compatible
digital camera (or any camera, using any file system) from Visual Basic?
Perhaps an ActiveX component or a DLL?

I need to accomplish this:
1. To download a picture (or several) from a digital camera via USB wire.
2. To trim the picture square (it comes at 4:3 aspect ratio, I need to make
it square
without any distortion, i.e. trim the longer side from both ends, leaving
the center part).

I need to do this programmatically because I need to do something else with
the photos later
(put into database, etc.)
