Hello,
I have a Canon EOS R8 camera that was released by Canon earlier this
year. I noticed that it is not listed under the supported cameras list for
gphoto2. I would appreciate if gphoto2 could support this camera in the near
future.
My Raspberry Pi running Raspbian OS detects the camera connected via the
USB as a generic PTP camera. However, when I issue gphoto2 --capture-image the
camera shutter clicks, I get a confirmation message that an image was captured
on the camera (alongwith a corresponding filename). However, I do not find
anything on the camera's SD card. I searched for similar issues on the internet
and found that I need to set config value "capturetarget=card" which I did but
even this did not help. I do not see any file stored on the SD card. I am not a
developer and hence not 100% sure but I feel this is because gphoto2 does not
understand how to work with the R8 completely yet. Perhaps some aspects work
and others need to be "onboarded"?
If there is anything I could do to help with onboarding this
camera model to gphoto2, then I would be glad to chip in.
Thank you!
Shailesh.
