[PLUG] Camera software

[Lee Marzke <lee@marzke.net>]

At last nights PLUG west meeting Paul asked about software that might
work with his Cannon digital camera.

If the camera is USB,  ( perhaps serial as well ),   I've had good luck
with the following:

-  LPhoto ( on Linspire )  - I think this is a re-branded Gphoto ?

-  DigiKam - on SuSE

I prefer DigiKam at the moment.

These download the camera images,  and can erase the camera after download.
They have a viewer, and limited picture editing / red-eye removal, etc.

You can also put the memory card in a memory card reader on Linux and read
the raw images,  but they tend to be stored in multiple folders and this 
is not
as easy to use as downloading.
