 ====== Tested Cameras ======
+<color darkorange>Jun 2017</color>

 So far I have tested four DSLRs (all Canon) and have had different results, so lets look at them to see what I could do (or could not wah!)
+\\
+\\
+It seems the problems with the <color #ed1c24>capture-download</color> are to do with shutter speed, if you have a longer exposure (say 2 seconds) <color #22b14c>gphoto2</color> times out. If you are using 1/125, it's fine.

 ==== Canon EOS-M ====
 \\
-{{:eos-m1.jpeg?250|}}
+{{:eos-m1.jpg?250|}}
 \\
 \\
 This is the original Canon EOS-M model.
+\\
+\\
+<file>
+gphoto2 --auto-detect
+Model                          Port
+----------------------------------------------------------
+Canon EOS M                    usb:001,027
+</file>
+So yes, we can auto detect the camera.
+\\
+\\
+<file>
+gphoto2 --capture-image
+*** Error ***
+Sorry, your camera does not support generic capture
+ERROR: Could not trigger capture.
+*** Error (-6: 'Unsupported operation') ***
+For debugging messages, please use the --debug option.
+Debugging messages may help finding a solution to your problem.
+If you intend to send any error or debug messages to the gphoto
+developer mailing list <gphoto-devel@lists.sourceforge.net>, please run
+gphoto2 as follows:
+    env LANG=C gphoto2 --debug --debug-logfile=my-logfile.txt --trigger-capture
+Please make sure there is sufficient quoting around the arguments.
+</file>
+So we are unable to capture files from gphoto using the EOS-M
+\\
+\\
+<file>
+gphoto2 --get-all-files
+Yes
+</file>
+Yes, we were able to pull all of the files from the EOS-M, so we can use a backup solution for this camera, but no intervalometer functions.

+==== Canon EOS 550D ====
+\\
+{{:canon_eos_550d.jpg?250|}}
+\\
+\\
+Now for my trusty Canon EOS 550D, a camera I really love, although it's getting a little old now.
+\\
+\\
+<file>
+gphoto2 --auto-detect
+Model                          Port
+----------------------------------------------------------
+Canon EOS 550D                 usb:001,030
+</file>
+Camera auto-detected okay.
+\\
+\\
+<file>
+gphoto2 --capture-image
+</file>
+Yes, this worked fine.
+\\
+\\
+<file>
+gphoto2 --capture-image-and-download
+</file>
+Hmm, worked initially, then stopped working. Seemed to work in Manual, but no other modes. Once it stopped working I never got it going again.
+\\
+\\
+<file>
+gphoto2 --get-all-files
+</file>
+Yes, this worked without any issues.
+\\
+\\
+----
+==== Canon EOS 700D ====
+\\
+{{:700d.jpeg?250|}}
+\\
+\\
+Now for the newer Canon EOS 700D, lets see if a newer model supports everything.
+\\
+\\
+<file>
+<file>
+gphoto2 --auto-detect
+Model                          Port
+----------------------------------------------------------
+Canon EOS 700D                 usb:001,007
+</file>
+\\
+<file>
+gphoto2 --capture-image
+</file>
+Yes, no problems.
+\\
+\\
+<file>
+gphoto2 --capture-image-and-download
+</file>
+Again, interminttant, Would work for a while, then stop.
+\\
+\\
+<file>
+gphoto2 --get-all-files
+</file>
+Yes, no problem with file transfer.
+\\
+\\
+----
+==== Canon EOS 5DMK2 ====
+\\
+{{:5dmk2.jpeg?250|}}

+Yes, auto-detect works fine.
+\\

+No.

+<file>
+gphoto2 --capture-image-and-download
