Re: [gphoto-devel] gPhoto2 - Regarding Camera Control Suggestion

Hi,

The --upload-meta-data is currently only used for MTP devices that support that,
e.g. MTP music players and Android phones.

gphoto2 --storage-info  
will show for the Nikon things like:

[Storage 0]                                                                    
label= [Slot 1]
basedir=/store_00010001
access=2 Read-only with delete
type=4 Removable RAM
fstype=4 Camera layout (DCIM)
totalcapacity=58785792 KB
free=43196224 KB
freeimages=9642

"Read-only with delete" is the storage access mode.

Ciao, Marcus
