Nikon Coolpix 2500 and tethering to a computer

[ronnie gauthier]

incorrect.
my Kodak DC5000 does not "do movies" yet can be used as a webcam and
does a very good job, as does my Sony trv525, which should be expected.
I have no idea why my kodak does what it does, but I'm not unhappy
about it having an undocumented feature. ;-)
