Help saving Output from Camera control panel

[K-Baum]

Hello,

I have search to no avail for C++ code to save numbers from FCB-AtoC10,
it is a program that allows one to zoom in and out on a sony camera without touching the camera.

I would like to record these numbers to a text file, because a similar camera will be going under the Ice in Antarctica, and having to print each screen of values would be inconvenient, when only the focus and zoom numbers are needed.

You should contact Sony. I am sure that if you are using their products for interesting scientific research that they would be glad to help. You may even get some sponsorship (in exchange for a little publicity).

I can find very little information of FCB_AtoC, and would need more information to advise. However it seems that you might (in fact it is probably certain that you would) be better off with an API rather than an application, and it is likely that Sony have such a thing. In fact I did a little research, and they do: http://www.sony.co.uk/biz/view/ShowContent.action?contentId=1213709652448&site=biz_en_GB

It is likely that Dev-C++ is not an appropriate tool for use with this API. However there are free versions of Visual Studio .NET tools, or you might even get Microsoft to provide tools if it is for a good cause - you can only ask!
