	I recently acquired a Canon PowerShot S50. It's a great cam, and I definitely recommend it- but that's besides the point. I connected to it via an app called Remote Capture which allows you to take pics through the mac, and you can actually have the viewfinder on your screen- much like a webcam. Basically this app allows you to grab real-time images over USB from the S50. I'm wondering, is there any way to make use of this functionality, or is there any app out there, that allows me to use this cam as a webcam in say iVisit- or other? Thanks.
