Multimedia :: Digital Camera Support?

Quote (larkl @ Dec. 24 2005,07:50)

With my HP camera, I just plug the USB cable into the camera, then mount the camera (/dev/sdaX - I think), and there it is. I actually did it by mistake the first time, I thought that my dual boot PC was in Windows mode, but it was booted into DSL. What a great surprise to see it work!

Same with my polaroid camera. Just plug in the usb and mount /dev/sda1. In my case there is a directory created in /mnt to show what the number is (i.e. /mnt/sda1).

Most modern Digital Cameras are supported in Linux (and in Windows 2000/XP and Mac) as STANDARD USB MASS STORAGE DEVICES

So you can usually mount them as disk drives at /mnt/sda1 for example.
