Device Driver for USB Cameras

Device driver for all The Imaging Source USB cameras except the 33U, 37U, 38U and AFU auto focus series.

Windows 10 April Update, Version 1803 and higher: At "Camera Privacy Settings" the setting "Allow apps to access your camera" must be set to "On". If it is "Off" IC Capture and other programs wont show the camera.

Windows 7: If you encounter error 52 "Windows cannot verify the digital signature for the drivers required for this device.", your Windows must be updated with Microsoft fix KB3033929.

If you are using an older computer model (e.g. a Pentium 4 with Windows XP and USB 2.0 cameras), we suggest using driver 2.4.14.

If you are using Windows 8, the latest driver 2.7.9 or newer is recommended for USB 2.0 and 3.0 cameras.
