But why not just go to the store, spend like $30, and get yourself a web cam? Ok, maybe some cost more than that, but you can stil get a decent one for a good price!<br><b>References : </b><br> I don't know if it can be used as one or not.

However, I don't believe it can work like a true Webcam since it need to run through the it's own software before you can view any live image. Beside the data stream will be so large that the IM/VC software might not able to handle it. Why not just buy a good webcam instead?<br><b>References : </b><br> I'm sure you can remote control the shutter via the Canon software which turn it into a quasi-webcam.
