Fedora Hardware :: How To Upload Images From Sony Digital Camera
Oct 14, 2010
I have a Linux-based PC, running Fedora 13, and am attempting to upload photos from my Soncy Cyber-Shot DSC-W310 digital camera. When I insert the CD that came with my camera, I get the following error message:
Archive: /media/SONYPMB/Install.exe
[/media/SONYPMB/Install.exe]
End-of-central-directory signature not found. Either this file is not a zipfile, or it constitutes one disk of a multi-part archive. In the latter case the central directory and zipfile comment will be found on the last disk(s) of this archive.
zipinfo: cannot find zipfile directory in one of /media/SONYPMB/Install.exe or
/media/SONYPMB/Install.exe.zip, and cannot find /media/SONYPMB/Install.exe.ZIP, period.
I spoke with your tech support person, and he indicated that I could press menu, and go to setting and select PictBridge on the USB option, but that does not work either.

When I plug in my digital camera (Canon Elph) it shows up in Nautilus, however I'm trying to write a script that will work from the command line. I don't see the camera in the /media folder, nor do I see it in /mnt. When I browse to it through nautilus it shows up as "gphoto2://[usb:001,008]/" with the "008" changing each time. how do I see my files through bash?

I have a Nikon Cool Pix 990 camera which I could access under Fedora 11 (and previous) using digikam and/or gphoto2. However under F12 and F13 it no longer works. When plugged in I get a Nikon Camera icon that the system thinks is a usbfs. However the camera is too old for that interface. If I unmount the device then it shows under usb-devices as having Driver=(none). How can I get it to be recognised as a non-usbfs device ?

We've got one of those fancy, modern digital cameras and it's great for taking pictures, but I'd love to back those pictures up, too. When I connect the camera via its USB cable to my computer, the OS just doesn't "see" the camera/connection. Nothing shows up in fdisk -l. However, when I connect my mobile phone or USB HD via the same port, they show up in fdisk and can be mounted without any problem. The scary thing is that on my partner's laptop, running gNewSense (with Gnome), it (auto)mounts without any problems. The camera is a NIkon Coolpix L20 with an SD card.

I have a Samsung Digimax S600 camera that I'd like to use to download pictures to my ubuntu v 8.04 LTS with all the latest updates.
However, there doesn't seem to be an application that will work with my camera. I've tried Camera, gtcam and Digital Camera that gets loaded while installing the version. gtcam and Digital Camera have an option for a Samsun Digimax 800 but none for my camera.
Does anyone know of an application that has my camera as an option.

I'm having some problems with Ubuntu 10.04 64bit finding my digital camera (Nikon CoolPix S4000). For whatever reason, when I plug in the camera via USB connection, Ubuntu will not detect it. The odd thing is that on my old Ubuntu 9.04 32bit install my camera was detected fine (it appeared as an icon on the desktop, akin to a flashdrive or any other mounted drive).

When I plug in my digital camera, it mounts it as a gvfs-mount. I have a few problems with this:
- It takes 2 times: I have to plug it in, wait, unplug it, plug it back in before it shows on the desktop
- Don't have command line access: Nothing in ~/gvfs after mount and I cant do anything with gphoto2://[usb....]
- Cant access it from another desktop instance: gvfs-mount -l lists it when I'm on a terminal on the desktop, but not when I'm ssh'ed into the system.
Really I just want to mount, rsync photos for backup, unmount and be done with it (all this in 3 lines of a shell script that I'll add to udev so its fired when ever the camera is plugged in)
dmesg: usb 1-5: new high speed USB device using ehci_hd and address 8. Configuration #1 chosen from 1 choice
lsusb: Bus 001 Device 008: ID 04a9:3176 Canon, Inc. PowerShot A590
How can I mount it as a normal mount (perhaps something that automatically shows up in /media or something).

I'm using Kubuntu, but installed Nautilus so I could use Dropbox. Yesterday I plugged my camera and it popped up a window asking what to do, but it didn't list any application, and the only option available was Cancel. Then I couldn't find it anywhere on the system, neither where it was mounted. Today I've turned on an USB hard disk and Nautilus popped up (why? shouldn't be dolphin...?), then afterwards plugged in the camera, and there it was on Nautilus.
But in it's interface I also couldn't find the mount point... I've seen I can add an entry on Dolphin's "Places", but I need the mount point. Is there a way to make Dolphin add the entry automatically? Device Actions under System Settings is a bit confusing... And Digital Camera (also under System Settings) gives "Unable to initialize camera, check your port settings and camera connectivity and try again. Could not lock the device", and indeed, I can't unmount it on Nautilus....

Previously I could plug my EOS 20D into the USB and f-spot would pop up and let me import photos. This was on 9.10. The camera is fine, it still does exactly what it did on the machine next to me which is still running 9 (or 8, I forget).

My Canon PowerShot A590IS digital camera records movies with a format of:
Stream #0.0: Video: mjpeg, yuvj422p, 640x480, 20 tbr, 20 tbn, 20 tbc
Stream #0.1: Audio: pcm_u8, 11024 Hz, mono, s16, 88 kb/s
For whatever reason, XBMC refuses to play the audio. Xine plays the audio but with a distressing static noise. MPlayer and Kaffeine play the files fine. The bottom line is XBMC and Xine seem to dislike pcm_u8 audio, or the way the audio is streamed with the video.I also cannot fast-forward the movies with some players, such as MPlayer or SMPlayer.
I haven't found whether I can select a different format with the camera, but to avoid player problems I'd like to convert the videos. My primary focus is playing in XBMC and Xine because I have both apps configured to be controlled with a remote control. What is the most compatible format to convert? This is with 12.2 or 13.0. I have ffmpeg, mplayer, and mencoder installed and probably all or most codecs I could use.

Code:
linux-a7xq:/home/daweed66 # hwinfo --block --short
disk:
/dev/sda IC25N020ATMR04-0
/dev/sdb Kingston DataTraveler 2.0
Samsung Digital Camera
partition:
/dev/sda1 Partition
/dev/sda2 Partition
/dev/sda3 Partition
/dev/sdb1 Partition
I'm using Samsung ES55 digital camera. As you can see in the above , Kingston flash memory is assigned with /dev/sdb disk (system disk is offcourse sda). My openSUSE 11.2 see's the camera , but the device can't be assigned to it. With opensuse 11.0 I did not have this problem, and camera was mounted normally as any other external device via USB.

From time to time I do a bit of astrophotography and time lapse using a canon 350d. To do it properly I have to use a remote capture program on the laptop. This was never a problem on windows or the mac. Does anyone know of a way to control my camera on ubuntu 10.04 netbook edition?
I have installed gphoto2 and this allows a command line method but I dont like command lines for this kind of stuff, plus id like to see the image straight away. I have tried a couple of GUIs for gphoto but the only one which seems to have a capture option is digikam.... but the button is shaded out so I cant use it.

I have a digital camera which does not seem to have a drive, yet can hold around 15 photos. The windows software included with it allows Windows to access the photos, but I want to access them with Ubuntu. It has a USB port.

I have digital camera (Canon EOS 550d) which I connect to my computer using a USB cable. I can see that the camera file system is mounted under "~/.gvfs/gphoto2-XYZ" where XYZ seems to be a dynamic device dependent string that changes every time I connect the camera.The thing is: I need the mount position ALWAYS to stay the same, so my photo management program (Bibble) knows where to download the images from.I am not sure how to do this, but I guess there must be a way to configure GVFS/FUSE or whatever is responsible for mounting the camera to use a fixed mount point (like /media/camera or something).

I have overlooked some very important tools that would give me the information I'm looking for. What I'm trying to do is -
Plug in a USB camera
find /dev/camera-pseudonym
mount /dev/camera-pseudonym /camera
cp * ~/pictures
umount /dev/camera-pseudonym
and then work on adding this camera to /etc/fstab so that it will automatically mount to the usual place. I don't know how to find the pseudonym. I can, lsusb and see Bus 004 Device 009: ID 040a:05c1 Kodak Co. Digital Camera I can fdisk -l and not see any new partitions (which, with most USB devices with storage, I can usually see the partition listed in fdisk -l) After these two commands related to search FOR the pseudonym, I draw a blank and resort to manually searching /dev for things that may be useful.
This is difficult, though, because there are dozens of files named usb-something, and they're all very similar to one another, and not related to typical pseudonyms I'm used to (like /dev/usb[0-9], /dev/sd[a-z], etc) I would like to be able to find the /dev entry based on the ID 040a:05c1 because every USB devices I've tried has been listed by lsusb, and is accompanied by an ID number.How do I find the pseudonym in /dev for any usb device?

Sony currently only supplies its NEX cameras with .exe binary firmware updates. Prior to purchasing the camera, I installed Wine and was able to execute the .exe. Of course, that doesn't guarantee that it'll work. Now, with the camera in hand, I actually tried to update the firmware. It didn't work. I tried using Wine 1.1.28 and 1.3.3 and even the cloned the Wine repository with git and compiling Wine with USB patches I found here: [URL] (Wine git, compile and install found here: USB - The Official Wine Wiki)
With the camera connected, I was able to use "wineconsole cmd" to open a dos shell. In the shell, I was able to see that the D: drive (which I assigned to /media/disk) was correctly accessing the camera as a mass storage device. I can only conclude that USB support works. However, it doesn't appear to work for updating the firmware. The firmware program from Sony searches for about a minute and doesn't find the camera. When I run the firmware updater with Wine, Wine produces these files:
[Code]....
The .dat file looks most likely to be the data I want to dump to the camera, but how? (I've done some research and have read that the data is probably encrypted.)

I have a recently upgraded OpenSuse 11.3 system (this problem also appeared to me in OpenSuse 11.2). I have a Sony DSC-W290 camera, and I would like to connect to this camera to get the photos. When I plug the camera to the USB the camera sets itself to "Memory Stick" but nothing happens on the Gnome Linux desktop. I assume that the system should automatically mount the filesystem as it does correctly with other devices (external USB disks and classical memory sticks).
This is the output of the last lines of 'dmesg'
[ 1948.494549] usb 1-7: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 7
[ 1948.612489] usb 1-7: New USB device found, idVendor=054c, idProduct=033e

I have a Canon S95 digital camera that used to work just fine. I plugged it in, the device notifier showed a couple of actions for it, I chose digiKam and downloaded the photos. Now I tried to get new photos out of the device, but it's not showing in the device notifier any more. DigiKam shows "Canon Inc. Canon Digital Camera (auto-detected)" but doesn't do anything when selecting it.
In dmesg I see:
[ 988.197025] usb 1-3: new high speed USB device using ehci_hcd and address 4
[ 988.313730] usb 1-3: New USB device found, idVendor=04a9, idProduct=3212
[ 988.313734] usb 1-3: New USB device strings: Mfr=1, Product=2, SerialNumber=3
[ 988.313738] usb 1-3: Product: Canon Digital Camera
[ 988.313741] usb 1-3: Manufacturer: Canon Inc.
[ 988.313743] usb 1-3: SerialNumber: [number]
So it works but KDE doesn't seem to be able to notice it. I'm using openSuse 11.3 with KDE 4.6 RC1, and it might be that 4.6 betas/rc broke the functionality though I'm not sure.

I run Ubuntu 10.04 on a Sony FZ-VGN15C Laptop. On start-up of Ubuntu I get two error messages including '...Video : Failed...' (the message is too fast to be read completely) This might relate to the fact that my built in camera does not work with Skype or Cheese Webcam Booth. The webcam type is VGP-VCC4 by RICOH.
