You can pretty much get […]

Friday, May 12th, 2006This one caught me out by being more difficult to get working than I expected when I volunteered myself to write it… Anyway a pair of little scripts savecameradata.py and loadcameradata.py hopefully they will make a certain amount of sense but given the late hour I’m not going to explain them now.
