Is the camera capture software (S/W) that ships with the microscope compatible with Win 7 PCs? I'd like to shoot macro photos with it.

Yes, but you will probably want to use a different driver. This one is chinese and shows it. It's VERY slow in recognizing the device, taking up to 3 minutes some times. Makes you think the device is broken. You can use VideoLans (and many other) excellent (and free) all purpose AV tool to view and record the images through this microscope. You will need to put the time and effort of reading the documentation for Videolan, but it's worth your time.

Yes, I have it on 2 computers. One is Windows 7 and the other is Windows 8 and it works fine on both.

You shouldn't need any additional software for newer versions of MacOS. I suspect you won't need anything additional for Windows either, but I didn't have a Windows box nearby to test with. The camera also comes with a CD with software on it (I didn't try it).

I'm thinking of buying this scanner. I am an oral historian and need a portable scanner to take with me on my interviews. I will be scanning photos, news clippings, all kinds of things. Question: does it really work with Windows 7 64 bit. I have an HP laptop I'm planning to use it with. Current feedback would be great. Thanks!

The camera will work with Windows 7 native drivers but I'm not sure about the software CD.

Need to scan into Adobe Photoshop CS5 / Windows 7 / 64 Bit -- wondering if you are using it for that and if it worked.

Yes work fine with Windows 7. Some of them you can't set the time and date. Also it ALWAYS records the time and date on the video so you geta bogus time stamps on your video. Other than that they are cheap and work well. Search youtube 'Drumheller 2 mini dv cameras' and watch one of my videos.

Yes it works very well with Windows 7. I digitized over 300 slides using Windows 7.

We develop software to work with this camera in our ACE Dental Practice Management program and it does work with Windows tablets. I don't know if the supplies software that comes with the camera will work.

I also have had two VuPoint FSt-C1-VP Film and Slide Digital Converters. The first one quit, so I got a second because I still had slides to copy. I have been able to use it with Windows 7 with Google's Picasa, their free Photo program. You can download it from Google. In Picasa, I select the import tab. Then select the OVT Scanner. It is the the generic TWAIN driver that Picasa uses for scanners and it seems to work with the VuPoint.

I'm not overly computer savvy but I have Windows 7 on my computer and was able to use the Ion Slides2PC 35mm Photo...

The software drivers should be with the software that came with the microscope if you lost the software then go directly to the web site you can try www.veho.com and see if the drivers are their.

How DID you get the Olympus VN-2100PC to work under Parallels? Windows "sees" the recorder. The recorder flashed the letters "PC to me so it recognizes Windows. When I run the Digital Wave Player software however, none of the files are found. :-OEd K

I just install the software included in the CD. After that I just pluged the camera and thats it. I use windows 7. I don't know why but the first time i had a problem with the driver of the camera or the installation of the software. I tried again and worked.

Yes. It comes on a mini CD. My PC is running Windows 7. One problem though, it seems that I have to reload the software regularly otherwise the camera does not get recognized / perform properly. The re-install is more like a "repair" and doesn't take that long. I have not pursued a solution to this yet.

I think it is compatible with Windows 7. However I use the camera only to Skype. It works fine. Though it's a bit blurry. But the price is right. If you want clearer picture, it's better to pay for more. But this camera can be a starter. Good luck.

No. And honestly - this product doesn't work at all anyway. I've only heard about 20% of buyers say it worked for them. If you're running XP, your chances are decent, but WinVis-Win7 is a for sure no-go. I decided to purchase something called an HD Game Capture from Elgato (their equipment is designed for Macs, but works well on windows as well) Check them out - it was more expensive, but worth every penny.

Hi there,Yes, you do need some kind of webcam software in order to view the images through the microscope. We recommend using 3rd party webcam software for Macs, but on Windows the Microcapture software that comes with the microscope would work well.EllenPlugable Support
