Panasonic PV-L859-K/PV-L779-K Palmcorder
Panasonic introduced image capturing technology
called PHOTOSHOT for the first time to this series
of Palmcorders. Images are stored in JPEG format on
an internal flashcard and can be transferred to a
computer through the built-in serial port. Images
are saved in one of two resolutions; NORMAL is
320x240 and FINE is 640x480. The CCD device which
captures the images from the lens is only 300K and
thus produces only low quality pictures.
Panasonic provided no specifications for the creation
of this driver (although a request was made). The
protocol was reverse engineered using ComLite32 under
windows while using the bundled Digital PhotoShot
application. I hope to include with this driver, in
the future, a document that outlines the protocol.
If you have any questions regarding this driver, you
