Hi,

You have "capturetarget" set to "card", but it seems no SD card is inserted.

You can set capturetarget to sdram or insert a SD card to fix it I hope.

Ciao, Marcus

Ack, i was waiting for this to be approved.

I replaced the sd card and was able to successfully capture a photo. Is there any way to add this model so it doesn't show up as generic nikon?

Hi,

I have added it to our git... it is in the 2.5.12 release that I did this week :)

Ciao, Marcus

Hi Chris,

Not sure if this helps but on the D3200 we have to use it without an SD card in order to allow PTP camera mode for gphoto. You then have to allow the camera to take a photo when no sd card is present in the settings.

I may be confusing my terms here but basically no sd card with settings allowing capture rather than lock works for us using gphoto,

Thanks,

Adam
