Is there a repository for camera drivers? I recently purchased a Nikon S6500 camera and it's driver isn't available in the 13.1 distro DVD.
Yes and no. Camera storage and other devices are either 'mass storage' like a USB drive or 'MTP" protocol. Check out the MTP FUSE (mtpfs) and the Gphoto library (gphotofs and gphoto2) The latter has the library in common with various photo editors such as darktable. Those library 'know' various camera details and there is an axillary package - ?lensfun? - that deals with lens characteristics. As I've mentioned here before, you may be better uploading from the memory card than via a USB link. Join the Darktable-Users mailing list for more details. https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/darktable-users mailto:darktable-users-request@lists.sourceforge.net?subject=subscribe If you are talking about tethering/remote control of you camera then it back to that latter library. Some applications like darktable have a tether mode. There are others, but its been so long since I've tried them -- darktable does all I want. -- Irrationally held truths may be more harmful than reasoned errors. Thomas H.
