Hi Tomas,

Re: "The shell mode of gphoto2 is exactly what you need. I use it from a
Java 
program, allowing to do things like focus while in live view, very useful
for 
astrophoto. Just investigate how to use shell mode from python. "

I'm using sh in Python to issue gphoto2 CLI commands.  That works well apart
from the problems I am having with Canon mirror lock.  There are several
other ways in Python to invoke CLI commands that I can try, but I suspect my
problem with mirror lock may be deeper than that as I can successfully use
sh to change the shutter speed, iso and take images.
