Summary: Canon 30D capture support

Initial Comment:
Hello, is the support for the new Canon 30D scheduled?
I think the protocol should be equal to the 20D so it
should be straight forward.

Maybe the Canon 5D is simple to add too.

As these are very popular cameras and probably isn't
that hard to support (I hope) I think this would be
interesting.

Best wishes!
Tiago

Image capture is likely only working in Canon mode for the
EOS series.

If you want to, you can catch USB snoops of capture from
the Windows SOftware, if any.

thank you! I have tried it with the line:

{"Canon:EOS 30D (PTP mode)", 0x04a9, 0x3113,
PTPBUG_DCIM_WRONG_PARENT}

which is the same flag as for the 20D and 5D (its ID is
already in the list!).

Downloading files work fine with the 30D.
Now if only image capture was implemented...

This is the output of gphoto2 --summary (serial removed):

if you have the chance to get at a 5D , its USB ids would
be appreciated too.

add this line to camlibs/ptp2/library.c:
{"Canon:EOS 30D (PTP mode)", 0x04a9,
0x3113, PTPBUG_DELETE_SENDS_EVENT},

(applied to CVS)

The PTPBUG flag will make the files show up.

FYI, the USB id of the 30D is (according to lsusb):

Bus 003 Device 069: ID 04a9:3113 Canon, Inc.

Ok, I just got home and tried the 300D through PTP. I have
two machines one with Fedora Core 3 and other with FC4.

In the FC4 everything goes well, the machine is detected and
I can download the images.

But in FC3 there is some kind of problem. The camera is
indeed detected as a PTP camera but I can't get the files.
Doing a "gphoto2 --get-all-files" returns without any error
message but it does not get the files.

I will investigate this later.

Thanks for the help ;)

when it is detected, download should work too.

Yes that is true. The camera must be changed from Normal
mode to PTP mode. But with my 300D set to PTP it isn't
detected. I'll try again later today.

Should it be possible to donwload the photos using PTP
generic or just detect the camera?

gphoto2 --auto-detect should work and show it.

The EOS series need to be switched in the camera menu to
PTP mode I think.

That's what I thought but I tried to connect my 300D using
"PTP Class Camera" and had no success (I'm using libgphoto
2.1.6).

If I get my hands on a 30D I can get you the USB id and
maybe test it.

We just need the USB id(s) and a confirmation that it works
in PTP mode.

Btw, in PTP mode it will be autodetected even without
recompiling, as "USB PTP Class Camera".

C'mon, the 30D / 5D both support the PTP mode. I saw some
post (I can't remember where) about recompiling the
libgphoto2 with a changed camlibs/ptps/library.c with a
clonned line from the 20D to add the support for the 5D. The
guy sad it worked fine.

For the record I don't own any of the two at the moment. I
use a 300D but I'll be upgrading soon.
