Move it to the top of the file, outside of the class definition:

import os
class CamHandle(object):
    def __init__(self):
        w = os.system('gphoto2 --auto-detect > CamHandleLog.txt')
        test = os.system('gphoto2 --capture-image >> CamHandleLog.txt')

    def captureImage(self):
        x = os.system('gphoto2 --capture-image >> CamHandleLog.txt')

    def getAllImages(self):
        y = os.system('gphoto2 --get-all-files >> CamHandleLog.txt')

    def deleteAllImages(self):
        z = os.system('gphoto2 -DR >> CamHandleLog.txt')

I haven't tested your code, but this should work just fine.
