|
|
-------
|
|
|
|
Hello and welcome to the wonderful world of gphoto! This is gphoto2, the
|
|
successor of gphoto with lots of new features and additional camera
|
|
drivers.
|
|
|
|
If you miss a feature, would like to report success or failure, or have any
|
|
questions, please don't hesitate to contact our mailing list.
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
What is gphoto2?
|
|
----------------
|
|
|
|
gphoto2 is a library that can be used by applications to access various
|
|
digital cameras.
|
|
|
|
Additionally, the command-line frontend, which is shipped with the library,
|
|
is called gphoto2, too.
|
|
|
|
For more information on gphoto, see
|
|
|
|
http://www.gphoto.org
|
|
|
|
There, you can also get information on mailing lists, supported cameras,
|
|
and availability of gphoto2. Another source of information is
|
|
|
|
http://www.sourceforge.org/projects/gphoto
|
|
|
|
where you can access our CVS server to fetch the source code of
|
|
gphoto2, gtkam and GnoCam (see below).
|
|
|
|
Requirements
|
|
------------
|
|
|
|
The konica driver depends on glib. If you do not need this driver, use the
|
|
"--with-drivers=xxx" flag to avoid the glib dependency.
|
|
|
|
Platforms
|
|
---------
|
|
|
|
gphoto2 should compile and run on pretty much all Unix-like platforms.
|
|
Additionally, there is a port for OS/2 available. gphoto2 has _not_ (yet?)
|
|
been ported to any operating system from MicroSoft.
|
|
|
|
Frontends
|
|
---------
|
|
|
|
gphoto2 ships with a command line frontend which is quite powerful,
|
|
especially in combination with scripts. For the GUI lovers, there are for
|
|
example gtkam (GTK based), and GnoCam (GNOME). Additionally, there
|
|
are plugins for other programs available like kio_gphoto (KDE - Konqueror).
