A screenshot of the current GUI for `#c0`.

SUMMARY
-------

Within `systemsettings` accessing "Disks & Cameras" > "Digital Camera" > ["Add"][1] displays [a modal window with a sidebar containing a list of devices][2]. That list is long enough that locating a specific model is arduous, for it lacks a search bar.
