[NBLUG/talk] Digital cameras

[Dave Sisley]

To add a little to the other useful comments:

I have a Nikon coolpix 4300 that works like a charm with linux (FC4, 
anyways).  I just plug it into a usb port and it shows up on the desktop 
- as a usb storage device.  I don't have a card reader, but the camera 
has a compact flash card.  I remember that under FC2 I had to mount it 
myself, but otherwise it worked great there, too.

I've tried a couple photo viewing apps, and I like gthumb.

Good luck!
