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. Camera Drivers ???
Are you wanting to access your camera directly to take pictures, transfer files, ???
Are you wanting to process your camera images with ???
What do you expect to accomplish with a "driver"?
Perhaps I'm using the wrong terminology. I wish to be able to hook a cable from the camera to a USB port to download images and manage the camera's memory. This would eliminate having to remove the mini-SD card from the camera (hard for old fingers), mount it, manipulate image files, unmount the card, and re-insert it into the camera.
Thanks, Tom
Have you tried just plugging in and starting Gwenview? It works with my Panasonic camera just fine. AFter you plug it in, you should see the camera in your file manager-- Dolphin, in my case. It won't look like a camera, just a USB entry. When you see it, see if you can open it up in Gwenview. You could also try Digikam.

Hi +1 for the just try it. But a warning: it eats the battery. If you need to keep snapping, make sure you have a spare battery. Better to the the card out if you haven't.
