Revision history [back]

For anyone that comes across this post again I am able to control the dslr camera using libgphoto2. There is an excellent tutorial here

I was also able to take what was needed for my implementation from the libgphoto2 examples that was not included in the tutorial. The only tricky part was linking both gphoto2 and gphoto2_port in cmakelists.txt; originally, I only linked gphoto2. Also, I was not able to get libgphoto 2.5.x to compile, and I had to revert to libgphoto2 2.4.x to make everything work.
