Ooops...<br>
<p>
Hi,<br>
I am a SANE newbie and was just starting to write a DS-7 backend.<br>
So far I had reworked the get_ds7 Perl library into C such that I can<br>
transfer images from the camera and I was playing with integration<br>
into SANE. ... Then I checked this list. Seems that I'm not the first<br>
to have the idea.<br>
<p>
So, am I wasting my precious time ?<br>
<p>
Also, the native jpeg format of this camera (and others) seems to go<br>
against the grain of SANE's operation. Seems like a true waste to<br>
convert to raw format, then back to jpg for saving. The TODO mentions<br>
new SANE image formats, is there current effort or framework to allow<br>
such extension ?<br>
<p>
thanks,<br>
Matt Martin<br>
