For a photo booth, I need to know weither it is possible to use another camera than the internal one on Android/Apple-devices. Is it possible to take pictures with an external DSLR-cam?

I found these camera-connection-kits, but they can only be used to transfer image/video-files from camera to device.

Thanks!

If your DSLR have sdk that use native code and samples that works on iOS/Android - you can. Adobe Air allow to use Native Extensions. But for developing it you must know Objective-C for iOS and Java/C/C++ for Android.

Native Extension it's static library that can interact with device system. And you must develop own library If you need simple Contacts or Video Picker from Gallery - it's easy and many times was developed by third-party developers.

But ... DSLR to Mobile devices - never heard about it also saying about Native Extensions for mobile + dslr ... ) All that I done it's simple connection NikonD90 to Windows 7 via Adobe Air and Native Extensions. But this will not help you Your question much complex.
