Hello,
Over a year ago I've made a qDslrDashboard WiFi adapter for my Nikon D90 based on a Raspberry Pi Zero W. I had to compile and install DDServer, then configure WiFi access point, scripts to start the service on boot and all the related stuff.
I was a little bit surprised that I couldn't find a ready-made SD card image. Maybe there is one but I just couldn't find it.
Anyway, I've decided to prepare one myself and here it is, together with information on what parts to buy and how to install everything, full guide:
https://msimonides.github.io/camera-wifi/
I hope it's useful to someone. I've tried to make it as easy as I can for non-technical users (and also for people who have not heard of qDsqlDashboard yet).
Please let me know if you see anything I can improve (any typos, ambiguous sentences etc.).
The guide isn't as polished as I would like it to be, but it's been sitting my disk for over a month now and I've decided that it's better to publish it as is instead of never publishing the perfect version.

Re: Raspberry Pi Zero W image and installation tutorial
Hi cinusek, thanks for your effort. I used your tutorial to build the project with a Raspberry PI 3 that I had lying around doing nothing. I had it up and running in under 15 mins. Great job thanks again.
I wonder if there is any way to power the Pi from the camera through the USB cable, or from the camera internal battery or the external battery grip?

Congratulations on creating a guide for building a qDslrDashboard WiFi adapter! It's great to see people sharing their knowledge and experience with others. I took a look at your guide and it looks very detailed and well-explained. I think it will be very helpful for people who want to create their own adapter. The parts list, step-by-step instructions, and screenshots all make it easy to follow along.cinusek wrote: ↑14 Jul 2019, 16:56 Hello,
