My mistake, the program I sent you has a variable referenced before definition
error. This new program I sent you runs perfectly on my camera by itself but
breaks down once my lens is attached. Thank you again for all your help!

Subject: In need of gphoto2 support
Hello,
I'm a software engineer trying to write a program for my Fujifilm X-T5 camera
to take photos over the course of an entire night of the night sky. I can
successfully get the program to do that when I'm just using the camera, but my
program breaks down the second I attach the Fujinon Lens Super EBC XF 200mm 1:2
R LM OIS WR.
I've attached the log file from trying to run my program as well as the program
that is creating these results. Any sort of feedback or recommendations would
be greatly appreciated. Thank you so much for your help.
Thank you,
Nainoa Jorg
