Hi folks,

I'm looking for a digicam that has the following features:


    - Computer (PC) controled Shutter Release which can sequence
      grab for time lapse photography in intervals of about 2 seconds
      where the entire secquence is not limited but by memory.

      Note: Some cameras can be triggered by a computer and can
            grab limited sequences of 10 or 20 frames to an internal
            buffer before having to download/process the images to
            card memory - usually incurring a long pause.  This is
            no good.  I hope to find something that can either grab
            & DL directly thru USB2 (or other) connection or where
            each frame is quickly stored to it's memory card.

    - Movie mode any file format, at least 640x480 at 30FPS.

    - All manual mode.  Where AE, AF, and WBal. can be switched off.

    - Any Price up to about $3,000 would be fine but inexpensive
      cameras are acceptable as well.


I've beat my brains out reading and searching for either a camcorder
or a still digicam that has these two feature capabilities.  Any imput
or camera models that you may know of having such would be most
apreciated.

Thanks!
Jim
