   We have tested the proper functionality with VELscope on the following cameras:
   Canon A620, Canon A630, Canon A640, Canon A 650 IS
   Canon G7, Canon G9, Canon G10
   Nikon P5000, Nikon P5100, Nikon P6000
   
   For further cameras the functionality seem to be equivalent to the tested issues but we haven't had the chance of collecting more infornations to other cameras yet. We will do our best to supply more results in the near future.
