Hi Jan, the thing is that I'm trying to find some kind of general solution that can work for many different cameras and brands. That is for cameras that support USB control of course. Hopefully, when I have the hardware, its just to write different software for different cameras. All major brands (Olympus, Canon, Nikon) have freeware/software for creating your own software for controlling the camera from the PC and I hope to get help from that. >>And, as you might have found out by know, USB was >>designed to have it "host" on something not less capable >>then a Windows PC (or similar)... What I'm hoping for is that my device can be so simple that very little computer power is required. Maybe this is not possible and then I will take a serious look at NSLU2. The only disadvantage with that is its size. My camera has IR, but only shutter release and that's not enough.
