#40 gphoto driver speed limited to maximum camera exposure

[nacho]

I am using gphoto2 driver to manage my 600D but I have encounter a problem setting speed higher than 30s:

2013-04-24T19:32:48: Driver indi_gphoto_ccd: Warning: Bulb mode isn't supported.  exposure limited to maximum camera exposure

30seconds is to low for astrophotografy propuses so I feel that implementing bulb exposures is a must.

Thanks

I was wrong. Bulb mode is supported. The problem was with the CANON 600D model. I have made a dirty fix and upload to SVN (rev949). In order to work you need also to upgrade libgphoto2 to Version >=2.5 before compiling.
