Which camera is this? Image Capture has no native API for remote

have the camera protocol docs or reverse-engineered protocol info.
(Look for ICAPTPPassThroughPB in the docs.)
If you are using a high-end Canon camera, you can use Canon's EDSDK
(which is what I use) for remote control. EDSDK actually uses the
Image Capture framework behind the scenes.
Other cameras have similar SDKs (of varying quality).
From the Leopard feature list (http://www.apple.com/macosx/features/300.html#imaging
):
"Improved Tethered Camera Support
Control your camera directly from Image Capture, allowing you to take
pictures and download them in a single, convenient step. More camera
models from Canon and Nikon are now supported."
I had hoped it would do better than what you're describing.
I tried ImageKit, but it's a little too specifically geared toward
taking pictures of the user, and doesn't seem to allow me to select
which camera to use (it always uses the built-in iSight on my MBP).
