Description

A GVFS backend for accessing PTP cameras and some MTP media players through gphoto2. It lets file managers and applications browse photos or media on supported devices without manual command-line transfers.

Install it if you connect cameras or compatible media devices to the desktop. Device browsing can expose private photos and files, so connect and mount trusted devices only.
