See here: https://www.oesf.org/forums/index.php?showtopic=20512 (https://www.oesf.org/forums/index.php?showtopic=20512)

The results look promising but not perfect and apparently required much effort.

I'm pretty sure jpmatrix is talking about the picture-taking-peripheral (that most people call a "camera  ) rather than the PSP-to-TV adapter, which just happens to have a camera in it.

I doubt you'll find any linux drivers or other software for it.

You're better off getting one of those small cheap USB digital cameras instead, as they're mass storage devices and the Z should work with them easily.

Ah, I see. Well, an actual camera would probably make more sense. I was a little tired when I posted that.

could u use gphoto to control a regular digicam and grab images onto the Z and use imagemagick to process them?

I did try gphoto with my 6000 in host mode talking to wife's Ixus and was able to retrieve photos, so was halfway there.
