The external trigger is composed of a jack 2.5mm, three wires, an on/off switch and a push button
Shortcut of ground and right (the middle ring) is equivalent to half-press, here wired to a simple on/off switch which provides the housing
Shortcut of ground and left (the tip) is equivalent to full press, here wired to a simple red push button

Camera Hacker

Linux

Digital Camera Support for UNIX, Linux and BSD
Canon PTP extensions
- Don't seem to work yet for 350D
Dave Coffin RAW Digital Photo Decoder
Digital photography and Linux moved to http://dplinux.org
Java Panorama Viewer (PTviewer)
gphoto2 (2.1.6 in unstable)
- gphoto2 --config allows to change e.g. the owner string
- add users to group camera
- see /usr/share/doc/libgphoto2-2/linux-hotplug scripts
apparently capture could work with gphoto2 according to this page: Needs to build TRUNK with experimental features on
gphotofs and fuse

Digital photography

Steve's DigiCams
Digital Camera Reviews and News (same as here?)
Imaging resource incl. some howtos, tutorials,... Some EOS300 specific ones
Digital camera resource page
Digital Photography Hacks incl. free sample chapters

Scripts

If you don't like having files named IMG_1234.JPG, you can try sth like this to rename the images _yyyy_mm_dd-xxx.jpg_

j=1;
for i in *.JPG;do
   exif.py $i 2>/dev/null |\
   gawk -v i=$i -v j=$j '
       /DateTime:/{
           match($0,/([0-9]+):([0-9]+):([0-9]+)/,a);
           system("mv "i" " sprintf(a[1] "_" a[2] "_" a[3] "-" "%03d" ".jpg",j))
       }';
   j=$((j+1));
done

- gphoto-devel thread

- Project on sourceforge

Notes

I was wondering why in bulk mode over 30s the camera was busy after the shot for about the same time.
Now I got the answer!
When taking long exposure shots, we can have what's called hot pixels, red, green or blue. To remove them automatically the SLR takes a picture of the same duration with the shutter closed (called "dark" in astrophoto) and substract it from the previous. [1]
