Here is my work in progress automatic slide scanner project. There are several #freecad designed parts, some #blender modified parts, an #m5stack controller for my #legonxt motors. Next step is to setup my #canon mirror less camera and automatically scan and download the photos by python #gphoto2 to my #linux host and then process the raw files in #darktable.

Yesterday's #comet #astrophotography #timelapse - the weather could not have been better.

Unfortunately the light leakage from inside the house is visible on the window pane reflection despite my best efforts.

Source data: ~3h of RAW 15s exposures using #gphoto2 + #raspberrypi (20GB total). Processed using #darktable #cli (amazing!) into #jpegxl 16bit intermediary near-lossless frames (300MB total) into final 10bit #av1 social-media optimized video you see here, (~750KB). That's over 25000:1!

Did anyone over tried and succeeded to compile a working version of #gphoto2 lib in #UbuntuTouch, #Mobian or #SailfishOS?

Doesn't matter on which exact device as long as USB OTG is supported. It's not about controlling internal #camera chipset. It's about controlling external cameras supported by libgphoto. Without stupid restrictions from naunfacturers "app" (OS, cloud BS, limited settings/supported depending on old vs new? entry-level vs high end…) and/or hardware intervallometers limitations

Todo :
1) Préparer et sertir des cables RJ45 de longueur custom. Et recâbler quelques bricoles
2) Remettre en place le setup tethering avec #Entangle sur la #SteamDeck pour contrôler un appareil photo (1) avec pour faire une photo bannière pour mon blog…

MonCerveau : Super flemme

1. N'importe quel boîtier compatible #gphoto2, à partir de n'importe quelle machine GNU/Linux sans restrictions débiles (pas android, donc…). La SteamDeck n'est jamasi qu'un PC GNU/Linux déguisé en console portable

I'm doing some experiments controlling a dslr camera from my computer, and I'm pleasantly surprised at how plug and play it turned out to be. Thanks #gphoto2 !

This photo is not particularly interesting, except for the fact that I didn't have to press the shutter.

Instead I wrote a simple program that automatically changes the photo parameters and snaps a photo.

Pretty excited about the possibilities of this.

And about how great open source software is at letting you control the devices you own.

And you can poke at the #bmpcc6k with #gphoto2 as it speak #USB #PTP , nice, very nice. Recording, focus control, etc works.
#blackmagic

this is just ridiculous, I have thought for years that #gphoto2 was broken and turns out al I had to do for my Canon 1300D to be listed while issuing "lsusb" in the command line was to turn off WiFi/NFC functionality :

On the bright side, now I have decent image quality for videocalls with my folks back home

miniPtp, a simple python library to interact with your digital camera using USB. Here how to send a Canon firmware update to my R6 #python #embedded #hacking #ptp #picturetransferprotocol #gphoto2 like. Https://github.com/lclevy/miniPtp

Looking for an open source project to control Canon cameras over WiFi.

#Canon #cameras can be controlled through USB with #GPhoto2 but as far as I know there is no possibility to do the same via #WiFi.
Has anyone seen a project to do this or has anyone ever written to Canon if there is at least an API documentation?

Please boost if possible!

Nice. #trickfilm mit Spiegelrelex bauen.

Does someone know a simple photo booth software which works with Canon cameras?

I was asked by a couple that is going to be married if I can set up a photo booth for them. I thought this should be no problem because #GPhoto2 exists.
However, all open source projects I found are programmed really bad, don't run at all or are much to specific and not for general usage. Why is there no project for a simple scenario like this?
I now started my own project with GTK and libgphoto2...

@kelbot @ajroach42 @nytpu @goosey @claudiom Just got back into #PocketCHIP and had an amazing idea. Using it as a remote control camera terminal for astrophotography (well, night sky photography) in conjunction with my AA-powered CHDK capable Canon PowerShots. Gphoto2 is now...installed.

Y a un moyen natif (sans paquets tiers) de faire une TUI en bash ?

L'idée serai de faire une interface interactive à #gphoto2 en mode texte et qui centralise un certain nombre d'info sur l'interface principale, avec le moins de dépendances possibles. Idéalement aucune autre dépendance que (lib)gphoto2.

Y a bien l'option python en supposant que le module gphoto2 est toujours maintenu, mais ce serai un peut overkill pour choper des infos tous accessibles en shell via le client gphoto2.

Y a quelques bugs assez moches dans #gphoto2 niveau l'auto_complétion des chemins du FS du boitier quand même… Genre
- Compléter des noms de dossiers un par un en mettant systématiquement un espace après le slash, qu'il faut effacer pour terminer le chemin
- cd <tab> qui fout le nom du répertoire racine en zappant le préfixe "/"
- refuser des chemins existant à cause de l'espace final ajouté par l'autocomplétion…
- refuser le nom de fichier dans un répertoire courant parfois (raison inconnue…)

En fait, j'ai toujours pas de retours des gens qui font de la #photo et qui utilisent des OS Libres pour savoir si leurs boîtiers causent correctement à #gphoto2 pour connaître le nombre de déclenchements
