Wow, thanks for sharing. Wondering what would happen when more and more cameras will be running any kind of OS.

;D So someone is going to hack into my camera and steal my photos ;D ;D


I hope he's not expecting to just "make himself the author" and sell them for lots of money. He may find they are not that valuable. :'(

And what a novel idea, a camera is a surveillance tool you can use to take pictures. I can see why this guy is an expert. :

I'd welcome anyone try selling mine, say 50/50 on the money and I'm happy to email my photos to them, no need to hack into my camera.
