Description: GPhoto2 bindings with simpler API
Python bindings for libgphoto2 with an interface that strives to be idiomatic.
In contrast to other bindings for Python, gphoto2-cffi hides most of the
lower-level abstractions and reduces the API surface while still offering
access to most of the library's features.
