I think that if you want to simply acquire and view images (including saving them to disk), but do not need to process the images, the Vision Acquisition Software will do it for a wide varieity of cameras
Yes I believe if your camera supports DirectShow then you can get away with just use the acquire and view tools without a license.

It is always a bit of a pain knowing if your camera supports it or not, but generally MAX always works so it is great for debugging if the camera is working.

You can perform image acquisition only drivers from VAS , but for any treatment or handling or VDM VBAI you need , plus VAS . You can download the evaluation software from the following links :
Módulo NI Vision Development https://lumen.ni.com/nicif/us/evalvisiondevmodule/
In this example, we will create a program in Labview to capture images from a USB camera to your application for further processing using the NI Vision module.
