Image capture from USB digital cameras?

Hi,

is it possible to control USB-based still cameras, with a view to "please take a picture right now and give it to me (as JPG / TIFF / whatever)"... I'm aiming to write a time lapse app in Cocoa and want to know if I fail at the first hurdle.

I'd be happy just being able to say "take photo now" & "give me the photo file". For extra brownie points, being able to specify a particular image resolution to take it at would be good.

I'm guessing this is actually impossible, but am hoping some bright spark can say "well that's where you're wrong".

I tried looking for the (probably Carbon) Image Capture sample code / framework on developer.apple.com/samplecode, but I couldn't find anything there. That may not do what I'm asking but I thought it would be a start.

Cheers,
Ken
