Tethered Shooting in Bridge - Display latest shot?

Using Bridge CS4 in conjunction with Canon EOS utility - "tethered" to an EOS 5D. My images appear in Bridge as thumbnails as they are shot. But the most recent shot does not appear in the preview window unless I click on the thumbnail. (this is only the second time I have shot tethered) I seem to recall that previously, the most recent shot would automatically display in Preview -updating each time I shoot again. I can't seem to find a preference or command that will fix this.
(OS 10.5.6 - + latest Canon firmware + Bridge CS4)
thanks

Unfortunately, that link doesn't work for CS6 because the Auto Preview Latest File extension is not compatible with the current version of Bridge.
However, Lightroom 4.1 works great for tethering, no other software needed.
Here’s the Adobe help page for tethering:

Can or will you be able to tethered shoot in bridge 6 like you can with Lightroom3 & 4?

Locking secondary display for slideshow. Auto Export after tethered shooting?

I use LR 3.5 when I shoot tethered. It seems the upgrade to 3.5 helped with the inconsistent connection problem on my D3. I still get dropped but not as often.
Thanks for working on that.
I've been using LR for a photo booth arrangement. I add logos using watermarks. As I shoot; the images display on my projector.
I am trying out the secondary display feature using my TV. Seems to be working but I want to lock the secondary screen onto Lightroom.
When I go to another application the secondary screen goes away and I get a standard apple screen shot. Is there a way to lock it so I can use another application on my Macbook Pro?
I need to use a Polaroid GL10 printer for an event and have to use Polaroid's software. There is no print driver yet for this.
So I have to export images from LR3. Then import and print using Polaroid's software
I would love to see LR have an auto export function. So I can capture tethered, process images, and export images into a folder while I'm shooting.
I don't think this exists? Are there any plugins that you can recommend for this.
Thank you.
Macbook Pro 10.6.8

Only display exposures during tethered shooting?

Is it possible to only have Aperture 3 display exposures during tethered shooting (with 5DMKIII)?
That's ALL I want to accomplish if anyone has a tip on settings, thanks.

Right now, when tethered, Aperture is preventing files from being written to the CF card in the camera (which I definitely don't want)
You have no control over that behavior. It's the way Aperture works when you are shooting tethered.
If I understand your question, it sounds like you are trying to use Aperture as a replacement/supplement for the LCD on the back of your camera. If so, is there a HDMI output on your 5DMKIII? Maybe you could attach that output to a monitor as a solution.

Exclamation (!) on images from a tethered shoot

I completed a tethered shoot last night, and today I noticed am exclamation point on two of my images (After my first edit, I have 217 images). When I click on the I get an error message about saving from the disk or catalogue-I have attached a screenshot of this error message.
Can anyone translate this message for me?
I'm on Mac running 10.6.8, Lightroom 3.6, and shooting with a Canon 5D Mark II. I literally just got my camera back from Canon, where it was being repaired for a dysfucntional port, so I am really hoping this is not an issue with my camera.
Thanks!
Ellen

This message can appear if you are automatically applying metadata to the image upon import. Since the metadata has not been saved to the drive yet, it wants to know if you want to update the files on your drive or go back to the original metadata thats on the drive.
So import button if you want to go back to the original metadata or overwrite button to update the files on the drive.
Its a good habbit to get into is save the metadata back to the drive when you can, that will make sure any other app that reads the metadata is using the latest data and should anything go awry with your catalog, you will have less to do to restore that catalog.
The other time you will see this message is when you use another app like Adobe Bridge to update the metadata. This allows you the opportunity to update your catalog. That would be a time to import settings from disk.
I hope that helps.

Setting and holding White balance during tethered shooting

I came to Apeture from Capture One Pro. I used Capture when working for a photo studio, when I started shooting for myself I went with the much more affordable Apeture. I have been very happy with the workflow, but Apeture seems to be missing one of most basic settings for tethered shooting, setting and maintaining custom gray balance. I realize that I can shoot a frame with a gray card and white balance that frame, but the following frames revert to the pre-whitebalanced color settings. In Capture One, I would balance my first frame to a gray card, even add a manual tweek, and all subsequent frames would follow the new color settings. Perhaps there is a setting I have missed, some sort of automatic inheriting of the last frames adjustments. I realize that it is easy enough to adjust my color settings after the fact, but my color is off during shooting, and clients are not always able to envision the finished product. I really hope I'm missing something, because it's the most important feature to me for shooting tethered, right after the ability to shoot tethered.

It forces this yucky uber warm white balance. Just to make sure it was not shot that way, I then selected "as shot". It immediatly went to the color of the shoot and looks great.
When you select 'As Shot' do the Temp and Tint settings change? How about other settings, do any of them change? Just trying to determine what is actually causing the color change.
Did you try creating a new preset with the same settings, and see how it behaves when you uncheck White Balance? The original preset file may have been corrupted (i.e. damaged) and resaves are not fixing it. If this doesn't resolve the problem then it is likely a bug with tethered mode operation. Please let us know.

Tethered Shooting with Nikon D7000 - when?

I was quite surprised (as, it seems, have others) to discover that tethered shooting is not yet supported with the Nikon D7000 in the latest Lightroom 3.3 release.
Has Adobe made any statements regarding the availability of this feature?
Does anyone know of any workarounds for the Mac, other than the ridiculously overpriced Nikon Capture?

I keep shaking the magic 8-ball, and all that keeps coming up is:
"Answer uncertain. Ask again later."
Strangely non-random results, too.
There is at least one free reverse engineered camera control wedge for Nikon cameras on OS X. It worked well enough to drop photos in a watched folder for me. It may have improved somewhat since. If I can find the link I'll pass it on, but I recall I just found it via a web search.
[Later]
A quick search led me to http://www.sofortbildapp.com/ and http://stefan.hafeneger.name/blog/category/sofortbild/
Works with auto import.

Tethered Shooting for Sony - Fixed in Aperture 3?

Can anyone advise if Aperture 3 has support for tethered shooting with Sony cameras that was missing in Aperture 2?
The existing support article is for Aperture 2 "The following cameras have been qualified for tethered shooting in Aperture 2:" (http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1085) and makes no mention of Aperture 3 support.
Thanks
Paul

The tethered capture floating tool panel is not modal - you can still use Lightroom's regular panels and tools while it's open, so working on a file while a session is active is no problem (provided a new shot doesn't arrive and auto-advance is turned on).
Lightroom cannot directly email images to an address taken from the IPTC metadata, for that you would need either a plugin or an external application. I don't know of one currently available.
Again, exporting metadata to a text file is a job for a plugin - but this time there are several available (such as http://www.photographers-toolbox.com/products/lrtransporter.php )

Tethered shooting with a Nikon D200..

I have a D200 and want to shoot macro images in the field and check images especially depth of field on my MacBook (Intel). Is it correct that with Aperture 2.0 no other Nikon software is required for tethered shooting? Thanks for any help and/or web info on this subject as I have never tried this before. Peter

Yes the D200 works with tethered. In the setup menu you need to change the USB setting from mass storage to PTP mode. (pg 121 in the manual). Turn the camera off, plug in the USB cable and then turn the camera on. To be clear, I haven't tried it in Mass Storage mode, so you might not need to do this.
Tethered only works if there is a CF card in it as well. I didn't like this at first, but USB is slow, with out using the CF card you would be lucky to get in one shot every 5 seconds.
I have a D200 and tried the tethered feature first thing on the day the trial was released. I LOVE it. Really, I was enjoying it so much I was laughing. Granted, this was done on my iMac G5, I have not tried it yet on my MacBook Pro yet.

Slideshow during tethered shooting - how?

Hello all,
here's what I'd like to achieve: I would like to connect my Nikon D300 and shoot several RAW images during a session. While shooting, Aperture should display a slide show loop of all pictures that have already been taken during this particular session. Thus, I would like to have a slide show while I am still shooting in tethered mode.
Is this possible with Aperture? If not, any other tool that I can use? Any advice?
Thanks a lot and cheers,
Bastian

Right now, when tethered, Aperture is preventing files from being written to the CF card in the camera (which I definitely don't want)

Cause of Erratic Behavior With Tethered Shooting

The first time I tried tethered shooting with my Nikon D3 and D2XS, I experienced very erratic behavior, including the import window popping up and images not downloading from the camera even though the software said they were.
I struggled with these issues for over an hour and discovered a very simple fix: Consult the camera manual. Nikon specifies a very specific procedure. First, make sure any CF cards you have in the camera are empty. Second, change the camera's USB setting to MTP/PTP. Third, TURN THE CAMERA OFF (VERY IMPORTANT). Fourth, connect the camera to your computer. Fifth, launch the software and go into Tether mode. Sixth, turn the camera on and start shooting.
When I did this, everything worked perfectly. The erratic behavior disappeared.
One other word of advice. Give a few extra seconds for the first image to download. They seem to speed up after that.

I would set both express in bridge mode and set to join or create its own network.
If you want excellent range then use ethernet to the express, set in bridge mode, set to create its own network and place the express more middle of the house.
Regarding the TC , keep it in an open environment especially if using N only mode(signal strength).

"No Camera Detected" when try tethered shooting

Setup:
Windows 7 Ultimate 32 Bits
Lightroom 3.3(just updated to the latest version)
Nikon D700 / D3s (supported according to this)
Problem:
When I connect any of my cameras (D700 / D3s) to my computer and fire up LightRoom and try to do a Tethered shooting, I get a "No Camera Detected" on the tethered shooting bar.
Notes:
- The cable works and the Windows driver works as my cameras are detected by Windows, show up in the devices list and I can browse the CF card content from the computer, so it is not a cable problem. It might be a driver issue with lightroom...
- USB Mode: the D700 and D3 series only have PTP mode, no USB Mass storage (MSC Mode), so suggestions to turn on USB Mass Storage mode are just not going to work.
- Both the D700 and D3 are listed as compatible cameras for tethered shooting in Adobe release notes
Any ideas / fix / suggestions appreciated.
Thanks.

Initially when I read this I was hopeful. But after following the steps - I still got the same results - No Camera Detected.
Environment:
Dell Core I5 Inspiron Laptop (new)- got it to do tethered capture on location.
Windows 7 home premium
LightRoom 4.2 (just purchased 2 weeks ago)
Nikon D300s
Initially when I connected my Nikon D300s - it worked perfectly with LR 4.2. Weeks prior to that the D300s tethered perfectly to my desktop computer (Windows 7 Home Premium; LR 3.6) as well.
After about 30 photos while tethered to the laptop (all photos transferred to the LR 4.2 on the laptop) - I took a break and disconnected (not positive I did - may have left connected) the camera. Later I re-attached and got the no Camera Detected Message. Tried switching USB cables(to Nikon's supplied USB cable). No camera detected. Tried switching USB ports - same result. In both instances Windows detected the camera and reported its battery life and space remaining on the card.
Found this posting, logged on as Admin and went through the steps, all of the services were already set to Automatic except RPC Locator. Set it to automatic and saved. Rebooted started LR and a tethered connection and connected the camera. Windows detected it as before, but LR was clueless. Realized that I had closed WIA before going to next step. Started Services and repeated steps this time leaving WIA open after opening each service. Set RPC Locator to manual and applied and then set to |Automatic and applied. Went through steps, then clicked OK on WIA. Closed out Services and rebooted. Started up LR, opened Tethered Connection and attached camera. No camera detected. In all cases I tried depressing the shutter button half way to see if it awoke LR Tethered connection.
Decided to try the D300s on my Desktop (with LR 3.6). Got the same results. Windows 7 recognized the camera, and LR was clueless. To me this strongly points to a problem with the camera, except that Windows recognized the camera both times - thus the USB port seems to e working fine. Read through the D300s menu options in case there was a setting there that I had missed. I didn't see anything relevant (plus I hadn't messed with it while Tethered).
So right now I'm up the creek with an on site session looming the horizon!

LR3 Tethered Shooting setting issue (image preview/loading)

Hello everyone, I've got a LR3 Tether issue I hope can be resolved with your help. I recently completed an on-location event portrait session with great turnout. The only issue was the resulting lines that had formed, at times 10+ clients.
My setup involved photographing the client, then having them review their photos immediately after to pick their choices. This was great until I had a line. LR3 in my setup automatically loads the most recent picture taken. At one point I tried to shoot a client, and have an assistant review photos with the previous client. This was disastrous in that every time I clicked the shutter, the computer would go from whatever photo was being reviewed and load the most recent shot. After trying this with one client, I went back to shoot, review, shoot next. Everyone was given the experience I wanted to provide, I'd just like to make it a little faster/smoother in the future.
Question is: Can I change a setting in LR3 to stop the automatic loading/viewing of the most recent picture capture while tethered shooting?

I am having the exact same issue. I had to revert back to lightroom 2 (which dosnt do this when you place images in a collection) and use DIY photobits for tethered capture as I was getting that f@$king annoyed with this bug. I have looked at every setting and nothing seems obvious. Hopefully its not engrained in the software.
Im just about to send adobe an email or attempt to to find out if this was done to purposely piss people off.
And as for people who leave feedback saying "i dont know the answer" dont bother leaving feedback, it is completely pointless.
FogleBR if you find a solution to this problem then please contact me and likewise if i find a solution.
wurd.

Tethered shooting help

How can I get tethered shooting to work again? It did before but now Lightroom never detects my camera. I have a Nikon D600 with the latest firmware, Lightroom 5.7 and Windows 8.1 64bit. I tried everything on this site already: Troubleshoot tethered capture in Lightroom

I have the same problem and no one answered to my post.
I am suspecting windows 8.1 to stealing the camera resource and hiding it to Lightroom.
I tried ALL recommendations on the Adobe support site and it still does'nt work.
It works well with Windows 7 though.
Any Windows expert around ?

Tethered shooting for large amount of people

Here's a little bit of background to my question. I have mainly used Lightroom for organizing imports from my Canon 6D and 7D along with developing them. The shoot I'm looking for help on, with these questions, is quite different from what I'm accustomed to. I am looking at taking portraits of a large number of people at a school fundraiser for a club where the lighting conditions are the same and the camera is on a tripod shooting with a tethered capture to a laptop. So if anyone could help with the following questions it would be greatly appreciated, thanks.
1. Is it possible in tethered capture to have the metadata panel open at the same time and be able to have someone type down their email address for each individual picture?
2. Following question one, is it possible to email all the photos from the shoot individually to the recipients listed in the metadata?
3. Can Lightroom automatically print photos after taken from a tethered shoot?
4. Can Lightroom save specific tags in the metadata from a collection into a text file where they are listed along with the file name?
A bit of help with any of the questions would be great, haven't attempted anything like this before and frankly haven't found anything that could help in the documentation for Lightroom. I do apologize for any confusing wording, my computer wasn't accessible from where I am so this was typed on a iPhone.

The tethered capture floating tool panel is not modal - you can still use Lightroom's regular panels and tools while it's open, so working on a file while a session is active is no problem (provided a new shot doesn't arrive and auto-advance is turned on).
