    So look at this: http://www.canonrumors.com/2015/04/magic-lantern-boots-linux-on-canon-dslr/

    Look what we did. Someone got bloody linux running on a Canon DSLR.

    Next we'll have twm on it and those cameras with bluetooth will get hacked, we'll connect keyboards, and the esoteric nids at sourcemage will use camera's for coding.

    Not really. Sourcemage is cool and I doubt one of these camera's could handle TWM let alone java in active script form. But this is still really cool.

    Interesting, not sure how Linux could be useful on a camera?
    Its a cool idea and once again confirms how flexible Linux can be.
