A few days ago, I bought a new digital camera, a Canon. (Don't have
it long enought to hate it).
You can't simply mount its storage as a (usb) disc, but luckely, gphoto2
can connect to the camera and extract the images.
Whoa! Are you sure? All cannon's for the past decade or so can mount
as a USB disk. Reading this I'm gussing yer using linux (as I do). It
might be necessary to turn off whatever its automatically launching to
"handle" the cammera? - and let the OS mount the USB disk on it. It
should /not/ be necessary to tweak udev. Anyway, watch dmesg for
d'messages and you should see the device when you plug it in. Mounting
it should be easy.
