HI, The 350D is very old camera from 2005, using the old "normal" mode driver.
I am not very familar with the capture/preview support in this mode, It looks like the preview mode the driver offers is basically - take picture - transfering the full imge or just its thubmnail for preview You might be able to control this with the "capturesizeclass" config option. I would not get up hope of this working well due to the age of the camera.
