You are mostly correct, Kofa. TFM says, "When a camera is detected, it
will show up in the device panel after pressing “scan for devices”. If
you hover your mouse over the camera tab label, a tooltip will pop up
with information about the camera (model, firmware version etc.)." With
my own Lumix G9 camera, that apparently is not the case as the "scan for
devices" button does not appear. The G9 appears to the computer as just
another pair of file folders (JPGs and RAW files), once I tell the G9 to
appear as a storage device, not a tethered camera. So far, the G9 is
not recognized by darktable for tethering.

Click on "import and you'll see two possibilities; "image..." and "folder...".
Assuming that
you're looking for a folder on your camera, click on "folder...". When the
folder window
pops up, look for your camera and find the folder on your camera that contains
your images.
Wouldn't that register the images in darktable's DB with the paths on
the camera, without copying them over?
