The Sony Mavicas are nice for LINUX. They take their pictures onto a floppy disk or CDRW. Not a cheap camera, however. One camera shop guy I talked with doesn't like the Sonys. The Sony file format is a standard format (jpeg, if I remember right). The floppy-based cameras use an MS-DOS formatted floppy. I think the CDRW uses ISO9660, but I don't know for sure. I have heard of USB-attached digital cameras that LINUX likes, but I don't have any firsthand knowledge about these. Hope this helps, T W > > Lb > > -- This is the [email protected] list.
