- Entangle is a program used to control digital cameras

- <p>
- Entangle can trigger the camera shutter to capture new images.
- When supported by the camera, a continuously updating preview
- of the scene can be displayed prior to capture. Images will be
- downloaded and displayed as they are captured by the camera.
- Entangle also allows the settings of the camera to be changed
- from the computer.

- Entangle is compatible with most DSLR cameras from Nikon and
- Canon, some of their compact camera models, and a variety of
- cameras from other manufacturers.
