Tethered DSLR image capture in AstroDMx Capture for Linux

Nicola is working on the next phase of the AstroDMx Capture for Linux project, that is, implementing DSLR control and image capture with USB tethered cameras.
So far, Nikon cameras are being implemented, but Canon and maybe others will follow shortly. All of the functions have yet to be implemented but at twilight this evening, we had first light as a demonstrator that things are working.

The tethered camera can be seen attached to the scope, and a captured image displayed in AstroDMx Capture for Linux on the screen.

When everything is working correctly for Nikon and Canon DSLRs, the program will again be compiled for the ARM processor and the Raspberry Pi.
