Q
What cameras are supported in Entangle?
A
The recommended cameras to use with Entangle are Nikon or Canon DSLRs, since they offer the broadest level of functionality and are the mostly widely tested with libgphoto2. More generally though it is hoped that any camera supporting remote capture in libgphoto2 will work with Entangle.
Q
Why was this application created in Entangle?
A
During a presentation with a local photography club, the speaker was using tethered shooting during practical demonstrations to quickly display shots on a projector screen. This seemed like quite a useful thing to be able to do, but while many Linux apps use libgphoto for accessing/downloading images from a camera, at the time, none exposed its remote shooting and configuration capabilities. This was a gap in the open source application suite just crying out to be filled. More recently Darktable has also gained the ability todo tethered shooting.
