Digital camera to notebook

Is there any way to turn my digital camera on to video and see it on my notebook as it records. I have a kodak camera and I would like to see it recording on my notebook screen. Can this be done? Thank You

You mean from "behind"? Recording everything that is happening on the screen like what is being typed in, what apps are being opened?

Nope at the moment as I know. Try an external web cam and pointing it straight to the screen.

cheers ...

It does not have to record to the hard drive on the laptop. Recording to the camera would be fine. Just want to see it on the laptop as it records on the camera. Thank you for the reply.

You can see what's running on the camera from your notebook if you allow a small window somewhere on the desktop and using the test webcam functionality from any IM apps (Skype, Yahoo ...)

cheers ...
