Kodak EasyShare Z740
Submitted by Blam on 2005-04-01 12:00:00 This product has a rating of 5 out of 5 running under Linux other Comments: Hot diggity. Took a bit of time to get it going but this Z740, a brand new model (as of March 2005) does work under gtkam as a USB PTP Class Camera, per previous reports of what to use with these newer EasyShare digital cameras. This model came with the EasyShare Printer Dock Series 3 and the camera was docked with the USB connected to the printer/dock (not the camera). You have to push the button with the computer icon on the dock and turn on the camera to get the communications going and gtkam should detect it at some point (the dock icon will start blinking when something is happening). Some of the other Linux camera programs will eventually detect as well (eg., Kamera & Digikam). It took a bit to get the communications going but it did finally get going and I could transfer pictures over to my PC running Suse 9, using gtkam. |
