Can KDE4 automatically detect cameras and ask if photos should be imported? My camera uses ptp.

Also digikam only had the option of copying photos not moving them. It would be good if an option would be included to remove the images from the camera after transfer. Also autorotating them if that information is in the extif data.

Try the folks at http://www.digikam.org/

I believe you should find a checkbox on the digikam import from camera dialog that reads "remove pictures from camera when finished" or something to that effect. By ticking that digikam will copy over then delete the photos on the camera.
