When I was shopping for a camera, several people told me that the
Olympus is a decent camera for Linux. I bought a 3.2-megapixel D-540
Zoom about a year ago, and it works (mounts via usb-storage). Just a
few weeks ago I upgraded to an Olympus SP-310 (7.1-megapixel). Both
cameras take reasonable video. Both mount like USB pen drives via
usb-storage.
Um.... while we're on the subject, anyone want to buy a slightly used
Olympus D-540 Zoom? $90+shipping. Linux compatible. Haven't even
opened the software bundle. ;-)
