I'm searching a way to import pictures from my smartphone (Samsung A51) <br>
as I'm doing with the SD card of my camera (select only new pictures) . <br>
I'm using it in parallel with my camera and importing the pictures <br>
manualy is painful and not secure. In a previous discussion there was a <br>
proposal to use transfert tools like freefilesync, but it will detect <br>
likely only new pictures until you didn't removed some already imported <br>
(then you will import them again)<br>
<br>
So I tried again to investigate on the connection of my smartphone to DK <br>
(now using 7.5) but seems Digikam is looking for network drive only and <br>
I didn't find how to assign a drive to the SD card of my smartphone. I <br>
also look at DK configuration to create a camera , but same problem, DK <br>
is looking for a network drive.<br>
This may not be a problem on DK side, but I'm wondering if someone found <br>
an efficient way for such import<br>
<br>
thanks all for your feedback<br>
<br>
Regards<br>
<br>
