If it's not a default function it's probably pretty hard to utilise it so.

Its easy as hell to use a mobile phone as a webcam though if thats any help.

I know on my cheaper digital camera there is an option within the Menu to change to "PC Cam" or something similar. I'd look around in the camera's internal menu and if there's not anything that resembles that, you might be out of luck.
