Controlling your camera from your computer with gPhoto

"The gPhoto project is one of those open source gems that works so well that it is easy to forget it is there. Plug in a digital camera, and the photo management app of your choice -- be it F-Spot, digikam, gtkam, or another -- identifies the camera, then quietly and expertly retrieves your photos with little to no fuss. But for most cameras, gPhoto can do considerably more, including just about any function supported by the camera's firmware. That includes USB image capture, a function normally thought of in the context of always-attached webcams, but available for nicer digital cameras, too."
