Hello,

Nikon L18 looks like a decent and relatively cheap camera, but, it's not
clear whether it can connect in USB storage device mode. Is there any
support for this camera via SANE or any other interface?

It almost certainly works either as a storage device or uses the PTP
protocol. SANE, though? I doubt it.


What's the address of the manufacturer's L18 web page?

I have a Nikon D60, and I use Digikam to pull the pictures from the camera to
Debian.. Once you have the camera connected to the USB port, and turned on,
Debian should bring up a window asking what you want to do with this object..
choose digikam.

Since *everyone* knows that GNOME is superior, the *obvious* choice

My L11 can connect as a USB mass storage, or PTP. I use gtkam with it.

I have not used that model, but had no problems accessing older ones and
their DSLRs as USB storage devices. It may take a configuration change.

It is not clear to me if you are plugging or dishing gthumb.

gthumb is not very usable while building thumb index files for a large
collection of images (1000s). Once it gets past that I have not found
anything better to process a batch of images (slide show with manual
navigation, preview image, loss-less jpeg rotate, delete).

Ah. Your grammar was a bit confusing. Or I'm getting Alzheimer's.

gqview is my favorite image viewer, and works well even on
directories with hundred's of thousands of files. I don't use it's
thumbnail features, though.
