I'm using gphoto2 capture image and download but it takes 3 or 4 seconds. I want it to only take 1 second; is it possible? Can anyone help me please? This is my code:

time gphoto2 --capture-image-and-download  --stdout > /dev/null

Which returns

real    0m3.584s
user    0m0.136s
sys 0m0.072s

I build a photobooth with a Raspberry Pi 3 and a Canon 600D DSLR. I use the same command and display the image after all. It takes about 7 seconds and is always an issue for costumers, because they want it to be very fast. The only solution i know is to use a camera attached directly to the graphic unit of the Raspberry and not via USB, wich does not work with a DSLR. That is the fastest way. But therefore you have lower image quality.
