SOURCE: Can I use my little

Many people ask if they can use their digital camera as a webcam. In the early days of digital imaging, it made sense to dual-function a camera because a webcam was a serious investment. However, webcams are now so inexpensive that manufacturers are not considering this functionality important in their digital cameras. In fact even the word 'webcam' creates the impression of bad imaging, so associating this function with a camera actually makes the camera seem 'cheap'.

So, why do so many people ask if they can do this? I believe it's caused by the 'grandfathered camera' problem. Advances in camera design have been so stunning in the last few years that it makes no sense to use an old camera when you could use a new one and get better pictures. But what do you do with the old camera? This is where people start thinking "I wonder if I can use this as a webcam?".

So, can your camera be used as a webcam? Probably not, but here's how you can tell. Make sure you've installed all the software you can find for your camera, power it up, and plug it in. Windows will tell you if it has a webcam function. If it's a webcam, then it will appear in "My Computer" as a device, right along with all the disk drives. To be sure, go to your control panel and select "Scanners and Cameras". Is your camera listed? If not... it's not a webcam.

In the unlikely event that you have a 'video in' on your computer, and that your camera has a 'video out' then you can follow the instructions on the sony site ("how to use a digital still camera as a webcam"); but most people will not have that yellow 'video in' connection. Also, in the case of your DSC-W170 you'll have to use the 'multi-use connector' to get the video out signal.

SOURCE: I need to date stamp

The camera doesn't have the option to date/time stamp photos. It can only be done using external software.

I have sony dsc-w170 how can i use it as web cam on my laptop

Unfortunately you can't. The DSC-W170 is designed to store images (and videos) to memory, not to stream live video to another device.

Sorry that wasn't the answer you wanted to see, but there it is.

My friend gave me her sony cybershot dsc-w170 super steady shot camera as she bought a new sony camera, however, she lives out of state and I was visiting her. However she did not give me the instruction...

Go to the support section of the Sony website to download a copy of the owner's manual to your computer. Next, downloading from the camera is the slowest way and sometimes Microsoft updates cause your computer to not even recognize your camera. Buy a card reader to download to a folder you create on your desktop and you'll never regret it.
