Long exposure adjustment (shutterspeed/aperture/ISO) delays on Sony A7S
Ok, there we go.... Version 2.5.27 does improve the situation, indeed. But apparently only for the shutter speed. On the A7S it is still somewhat slow, but around three times faster than before. That's better than nothing.... On the newer Sony a6300 the settings are changed almost instantly now - this is almost perfect there. Might it be that the same improvement that has been done for the shutter speed setting could also be applied for the aperture and ISO settings?
Yet another follow-up: The compilation issue has been solved. It was the libusb-dev packet that was missing. I'll report more later on regarding the actual topic.....
As a follow-up: I also tried to build version 2.5.26 and even 2.5.25 from the source. Both are failing equally. Since version 2.5.25 that is coming with Ubuntu 20.04 is working, there seems to be an issue with the compilation. Although configure is reporting some warning that some camlibs are not build, I think that this is not the reason, since this seems to be dedicated to a Lumix library that appears to be excluded by default. For reference I'm attaching the configure output I got for 2.5.25.
Thanks for your response, Marcus. Indeed, I checked that and I'm running version 2.5.25, which is the latest standard version installed on Ubuntu 20.04LTS which I'm running. The recent version is 2.5.27, and the release notes of 2.5.26 mention some changes in that direction. I did grab the source code of 2.5.27 and did install it more or less as usual with ./configure --prefix=/usr/local; make; make install. However, it does not find the camera any more now. I did also test this with gphoto2 (version...

can you switch it to "PC Control" mode and try again?
Wrong Camera is reported by gphoto
yes, these are american vs european naming...bu just 1 usb id. it is only the brandname, everything else is the same

Long exposure adjustment (shutterspeed/aperture/ISO) delays on Sony A7S
Rebel T7i and EOS 800D are the exact same camera. Just a different name because Canon marketing department like to confuse people. Former is name in North America, the latter in most of the rest of the world.
Wrong Camera is reported by gphoto
First of all thanks for your checking. No, darktable is not detecting my Nikon D5000 and to re-check it i tried it with my Nikon Coolpix with the same result. I could but did it not until now try it with a DJI Osmo Pocket.
This looks all good. The abilities are what they are supposed to be, (Image, Preview and Trigger Capture) Is darktable detecting the camera at all? is it detecting it with the correct name?
updted for 2.5.27

Sony RX100M3 support
over usb requesting it should work, if you are in PC Control mode. I thinjk the RX100M3 does not allow remote control, which you probably are looking for. Note we track things in github these days.
Sorry if I misunderstand myself. I'm not sure how to explain it. I used the following instructions from darktable tutorial and "nearly" all went well. 1. env LANG=C gphoto2 --auto-detect 2. env LANG=C gphoto2 --port usb: --abilities 3. env LANG=C gphoto2 --port usb: --capture-image-and-download 4. env LANG=C gphoto2 --port usb: --capture-tethered Now, it also went well including step 4, but what's the problem that darktable does not find my camera for importing pictures directly? Is it a problem...
Panasonic Lumix GX8 and G9
(we track issues in github these days) this panasonic cameras are supported in current libgphoto2 versions.
Nikon D5000 - env LANG=C gphoto2 --port usb: --capture-tethered
What exactly do you want to achieve? This is the mode where we handle and report events coming from the camera without timeout. so if you press the shutterbutton on camera, it will download the newly cpature image. for remote control from the computer, try gphoto2 --capture-image-and-download insteadhttps://sourceforge.net/p/gphoto/support-requests/152/

Ok thanks. What about my other question: how can I query the capabilities of a specific driver without having the camera?
Hi Marcus, Thank you for the quick response, unfortunately I do not see this under my homedirectory on the pi... Apologies, I think I have looked everywhere that would reference a home directory I have looked under here for the home directory; https://imgur.com/d0yuAxo & gphoto2 directory; https://imgur.com/WEsFVxp and libgphoto2 https://imgur.com/PpFDGYE with no luck for a settings file (unless I am being totally blind)

Standard Camera Properties
This was actually a bug. The highisonr decoder was misconfigured in lots of places to look for INT8 type, while it is everywhere UINT8 type. I have fixed this in GIT, and it should be fine with 2.5.25 once I release it.PTP_DPC_NIKON_NrHighISOPTP_DPC_NIKON_NrHighISO
Both on the D500 and D850 they have Name=d070 instead of highisonr which it indeed is on the D700, Id = 189 on the D500 and Id=190 on the D800. Is there a way to query the widgets for a driver without having a camera attached? I could not find it.
They are all called "highisonr" here as far as I see, where do you see differences? Our goal is to have the same name and shortname for the same settings.
Standard Camera Properties
it is usally created on first use... it will be in ~/.gphoto/settings so if you use the pi user, in its homedirectory. in your case probably: Default value for this option can be specified in the ~/.gphoto/settings file as gphoto2=filename=value.

I ran this command to get the logfile, but then discovered that the log file was in danish. gphoto2 --shell --debug --debug-logfile=DA-my-logfile.txt So I added "env LANG=C" to the command : env LANG=C gphoto2 --shell --debug --debug-logfile=EN-my-logfile.txt ,and the "manualfocusdrive" errors disappeared :-) , so it seems that the problem is that I should run gphoto2 with the prefix, env LANG=C ? But how do I run Entangle and Darktable, which uses Gphoto2, and keep Danish in the GUI ? I have attached...
