generally cameras that use CF cards (compact flash) can be read either over the usb port (with gphoto2), or via a CF reader (e.g. the sandisk SDDR-31)
I have a Nikon coolpix 990, and it's a great camera, and is well supported either as a camera (with gphoto2) or with the cf reader. The gphoto2 home page (http://www.gphoto.org/) will give a list of over a hundred camers knows to work (http://www.gphoto.org/cameras.html, 162 models), and the level of compatability you can expect. rgds, -Greg On 30-Apr-02 Anand Buddhdev wrote: > I want to buy a digital camera for personal use (to take holiday and other > odd pictures now and then), but I have no idea which one to buy.
