Which script did you mean ?

I am mainly interested in the --capture-image as then I can use the N810 as a Wifi controlled remote control unit for my camera.
Downloading photos can simply be done by attaching the CF card into a card reader on a powered USB hub on the N810.

I tried it with the script, indeed no reboots anymore, but it did not recorgnize the eos 40 either. The option --capture-image said 'function unsupported'.

You can find also the project "Papywizard" here (i don't say anything about it, simply it's a great and very interesting to pilots a camera and a motorized pano head with all system win XP - Vista - Linux - and all nokia N770-800-810 (writing in phython)

Hello Jean-Pierre!

Even though I am the one (so far) that has been compiling and packaging 'libgphoto' and 'gphoto2' for Maemo (until someone else hopefully takes over the responsibility), I am personally not using 'gphoto2' on my N800 very much -- because it is so unreliable with my Nikon Coolpix cameras. Perhaps you will have better luck than me with it

I am also interested in the 'Papywizard' system, especially since it can be controlled on a Nokia internet tablet. I am personally waiting for good prices and availability of the Orion/Merlin GOTO mounts in Canada, as well as a cheap/easy wired (or wireless) connection to control it (bluetooth?). The last time I checked the project, it still looked 'tricky' and 'expensive'. It sounds like you want to try to *combine* the 'movement' control with gphoto2 via USB controls?

it'd be interesting to combine this with CHDK on a canon camera using the timelapse script.

Hi,
Papywizard can control the Merlin with Bluetooth you can find all you need on the forum
http://www.autopano.net/forum/f20-me...and-papywizard
or in french
http://www.autopano.net/forum/f14-pr...que-motorisa-e

The merlin is not expensive 219 € TTC - i don't know in us Can but seems to be same.
I use Papy on 3 sys, nokia, linux and win, all goes well
gphoto2 only in linux. for win and nokia i use a "schutter" directly controled by "Merlin"
