Hi
can anyone please help I have a Sony DSC S70, according to the Sony web site
I am able to use this camera as a web cam. Unfortunately my laptop and
desktop do not have video input sockets. Is it possible to transfer the
signal from the camera to a USB input with the appropriate leads. I am not
too clued up on computers is it possible to transfer that type of signal to
USB.

Many thanks

BJ

Depending on what kind of "video input sockets" you are talking about (a
standard one we'll hope), perhaps you could use an adapter such as this one:

If that's not what you need, try a Google search on "video to USB adapter"
and see if you find the specific adapter you need.
