This was the thing I used before. I see on the hardware page they say 'with some glitches' after the 990. Same as before. Still, I will try again and see if it is better. One of the glitches was that it deleted all the images from the camera for no obvious reason. Of course, my testing was with

I would assume so. Give it a try. Also, photopc doesn't have any 'root only' requirements, so anyone can use it to play with the camera. Add TyGeMo to the mix, and its easy for everyone, linux experts or otherwise. On Mon, 10 Jun 2002, Tim Wunder wrote: On 6/10/2002 10:41 AM, someone

Ahhh. Well, keep in mind that the 460 is a serial port camera, where the 380 is USB. I have no clue about xferring pix from the camera to the PC via USB, other than mounting it as a SCSI drive. That would mean that photopc is no longer needed (or gphoto for that matter). On Mon, 10 Jun 2002,

No. I know that on the Mustek MDC800 camera, you (can?) use gphoto, set it up as a MDC800 (or MDC8000) camera, and for the path, use /dev/usb/mdc800 I know this works. I am not aware whether this camera can be mounted and accessed like a disk. But the point is, this camera is a

Now I need to see if gphoto2 is finally supporting a Nikon CoolPix 990 over the USB. Last I checked it was iffy at best. It does not appear as a disk. Instead, there is a command set to control it. There are libs, but I think the USB stuff was not too good last time I tried. I just will say 'no'
