Digital Camera recommendations ...

[Aakin N. Patel]

: I can't speak to its Linux-friendliness, but as of yesterday slickdeals
: had a great deal on a camera/printer combo:

: www.slickdeals.net/#p5574
: Canon A400 3.2MP Digicam and a Canon IP3000 Photo printer: $150 after $98MIR
: 
: That almost seems worth checking out to "test" for Linux-friendliness.
: Although Canon has been much less open than, say, Epson for their drivers.
: 
: Has anyone any experience on the Canon A400 and the IP3000?

I've had 2 canon digital cameras (the S100, and then the S1 IS), and
both are great. I haven't used them directly linked to my linux box,
but both of them use compact flash cards, and using any card reader
with the usb-storage module is easy. Compile in scsi disk support,
modprobe uhci-hcd, modprobe usb-storage, and then mount /dev/sda1.
