Reading image data from Nikon COOLPIX5700
> Japanese
This is a way of reading image data from E5700 into FreeBSD box, I've tried.
Connection
Since E5700 uses CompatFlash (or MicroDrive) as a storage medium,
we have 2 ways to read pictures into our laptop FreeBSD box:
- via USB (using cable bundled)
- via pccard slot (using optional CompactFlash-PCMCIA adaptor)
I tried the USB connection.
Reading
I attempted to connect E5700 up to my note PC by the bundled USB cable.
The PC is Panasonic's CF-B5FR running FreeBSD 4.7-STABLE as of 2002/11/21.
Then it probed as the following.
At this time, E5700 had 256MB CompactFlash card.
Then I mounted da0s1 on /mnt as the msdos filesystem.

There was no problem on reading files.
xv(1) and jhead(1) were useful to view images and their exif information.
mtools(1) may also work.
