super slow deleting photos off 20d

[Aaron Solochek]

Has anyone else with a canon 20d (or perhaps any other camera) noticed that
while downloading pictures is fast (on highspeed usb), deleting the pictures is
_very_ slow?  It's much, much faster to just leave the pictures, unplug the
camera, and delete them all via the camera controls.

I'm assuming the problem isn't my camera, but I wanted to verify that other
people see this problem.

Thanks.

Here, i'm using Dynax 5D via USB2 and USB Mass Storage. Deleting item is very
fast using camera interface.

But witch digikam release you using ? Have any errors/warnings messages from
kernel log when you process items deletion ?

I'd swear something about the 20D is either in the bug system or was on this
list recently - mostly that gphoto2 has two different drivers, one
experimental and one not, simply due to bugs in the 20D handling of PTP.  
Something about having to reset flags and so on.

I'm using 0.8.0 from debian.  There are no errors anywhere that I can see.  It
takes about 8 seconds per photo to delete, btw.
