[Digitalarchivists] New A2200 Cameras on diyscanner

[Andrew Defries]

Despite the listing of A2200 Canon here:

http://gphoto.org/proj/libgphoto2/support.php


We get this error after ./scan.py :

##########################################################
detecting cameras
capturing preview images


*** Error ***
Sorry, your camera does not support generic capture
ERROR: Could not capture image.
*** Error (-6: 'Unsupported operation') ***

For debugging messages, please use the --debug option.
Debugging messages may help finding a solution to your problem.
If you intend to send any error or debug messages to the gphoto
developer mailing list <gphoto-devel at lists.sourceforge.net>, please run
gphoto2 as follows:

    env LANG=C gphoto2 --debug --debug-logfile=my-logfile.txt
--capture-image-and-download --force-overwrite --port usb:002,022
--filename tmp00000.jpg

Please make sure there is sufficient quoting around the arguments.

 Also I tried the troubleshoot here:

If it a USB mass storage based camera (appearing like a USB stick or USB
drive) it is mounted by your operating system and not gphoto2. In this case
a report to us is not necessary.

Record the output of lsusb to get the USB ids.

Record the output of gphoto2 --auto-detect to see if it is detected in a
generic way, or by another name. If it is detected already, run the steps
below:

Record the output of LANG=C gphoto2 --summary >summary.txt to get generic
summary information into the summary.txt file.

Record the output of LANG=C gphoto2 --list-all-config >config.txt to get
the configuration tree into the config.txt file.
Record the output of gphoto2 --capture-image to see if capture works
already.

The troubleshooting indicates the usb drivers work but:

Sorry, your camera does not support generic capture
ERROR: Could not capture image.
