I've had great luck with a serial camera, actually. It's a Kodak DC3200.
I access it via the gtkam plugin for the GIMP, which is by far (one of)
the best image editing program(s) for Unix (and Windows). If you don't
want to go serial or Kodak, you'll still want to look at the list of
cameras that libgphoto2 supports.

Unix is user friendly. However, it isn't idiot friendly.

Please CC me in all replies, even if I'm on the relevant list(s).
