Open Valencanoextinto opened 3 years ago

Valencanoextinto commented 3 years ago

Hello is my first time that i write here, sorry if a don´t use this

I have a problem when i use "gphoto2 --auto-detect", it can't show me my model camera image

I am using a canon 250D, it is in the list compatible cameras

thans so much for the help

FormerLurker commented 3 years ago

I'm not really a gphoto2 expert, but I'll do what I can. Is it not taking a snapshot when you send the appropriate command, or is it just not showing the model with the --auto-detect parameter?

Valencanoextinto commented 3 years ago

Thank you very much in advance, it is the first time that I use so much code

this is what appears to me after using the command: "sudo gphoto2 --auto-detect --capture-image-and-download --filename "${SNAPSHOT_FULL_PATH}"" image

With him in principle I do both, right?

Your camert probably needs to be in M mode. Search for bulb release on this page, and read about the canon eos cameras: http://www.gphoto.org/doc/remote/

You may need to add a few config lines to the script. Octolapse can run a config script on print start, which will reduce capture time a tiny bit :)

Ok I have changed to manual mode and it already captures images: image

but I don't understand what code of the script you mean I'm very sorry, I don't understand much about programming :(

Excellent! I recommend running a test print to make sure your camera work for repeated photos. If you get any timeout errors (bulb errors), there may be more to do.

I'm very sorry, I don't understand much about programming :(

That's OK! If it's taking pictures, and doesn't error out during a long print, you should be just fine as you are!

Thank you very much it seems that in the configuration part I have been able to do everything

in a while I will do the test mode thank you very much again as soon as I have news I will inform you

Valencanoextinto commented 3 years ago

i have an old nikon d3100 and would like to use it on 3d printer which is connected to a raspberry pi 4b but gphoto2 does not seem to detect it when running

sudo gphoto2 --auto-detect

is Nikon d3100 still supported on the latest version if not can i use older version when i try

apt-cache policy gphoto2

under the version table it only show 1 version available (2.5.20)
