Description Julien Narboux 2006-02-03 19:43:18 UTC
Version:            (using KDE Devel)
Installed from:    Compiled sources

It would be easier to have the camera list displayed as a tree sorted by 
brand/camera.

Julien,

Libgphoto2 do not provide this way. The list is given is a flat list. Each item name merge Camera Make and Camera Model. There is no way to separate this easily.

I suggest to move this entry in Gphoto2 bugzilla as a wish. A new method must ba added in libgphoto2 to give an advanced list of Camera sorted by brand.

But things could be much improved if there will be two entries on top of
list. If necessary coded by hand:

- UMS camera
- PTP camera

These two entries will handle 80-90% of cases and will be easy to find.

SVN commit 794681 by cgilles:

digiKam from KDE3 branch : added search text bar to easy find a camera make/model from the huge list provided by libgphoto2.
There is no way with libgphoto2 to separate camera make/model. These infomations are merged to a common string and it's impossible 
to short camera list by brand.
