Description Christian Maiwald 2017-12-22 08:49:42 UTC
My Nikon D3300 is connected via usb and recognized by Win10 but Digikam 5.7.0 does not find it an only shows CD card and normal drives. Import function is not functional. When i try to set up the camera manually i get an Error that the camera is not connected properly but it works with windows and also with the Nikon programs. In the Explorer the camera is shown and the data access is functional. I write already the second time but there's no response

Yes, there is no code to handle the camera interface from windows instead gphoto drivers.

This must be the goal from Gphoto in fact. Ideally we must be able to play with on interface (gphoto) everywhere. Gohoto run well under Linux and MacOS, but not under Windows.
