Tethering with Canon T3i and Canon T4i

Will Lightroom allow tethering with Canon T3i and Canon T4i ?

I upgraded the EOS utility to the latest version.  Now I can tether perfectly in lightroom 4.3 with the T4i.

  • Lightroom 4.2 stopped mid way through tethering with Canon 1DX.  any suggestions?

    Lightroom 4.2 stopped mid way through tethering with Canon 1DX.  Top left corner bar read still transferring, but all images had already been viewed in preview of tether and i had given it an etxra 15 minutes to contine transferring until I rebooted everything.  I restarted several times while client waited, but LR would no longer accept tethered images any longer.  Any suggestions?

    Well, the EOS Utility was incompatable with OSX for quite awhile and once LR appeared to support tethering, I migrated away from it. Until yesterday.
    The workflow is still wonky, if you want to use LR for display/printing (which I do), but it's doable.
    There are tutorials online, I remember finding them (sorry no links) years ago.
    The main bugaboo is creating the appropriate folders in the right order. Both LR and EOS Utility are really picky about those folders (have to be empty, both apps picky about that, so you'll probably have to manually empty after firing off a couple of test images).
    I always forget how I did it, but last night's kind of fresh in my mind — I think the order that worked for me was:
    create a destination folder in EOS Utility
    in LR's auto-import settings, choose the step #1 folder as the watched folder (you've got to do this before putting a single thing in that folder, which will likely mean manually tossing some test images, because if you don't LR will ***** at you that the folder must be empty.)
    below that in the same window, create a Destination folder. (don't know why this is necessary, but it is)
    Finally, I suggest doing all this in one parent folder and creating a shortcut to that folder somewhere very convenient so that you want drive yourself crazy in the inevitable opening, closing and reopening of these folders, trying to troubleshoot. :-)

  • Camera RAW issues with Canon T4i

    I have many, many cameras and have used Photoshop and Bridge for years.  Even though the latest updates for Camera RAW says it can handle the T4i, I tried opening these files on two separate computers, both running Win 7 64 bit, and my having Photoshop Extended 5+ 64 bit on both computers.
    I tried reformatting the camera card, wanting to eliminate that as a possible problem, and the same problem exists.
    Camera RAW will recognize all of my other cameras, the D Mark III, T3i, Nikon D2x, D3, D3X, so on and so forth, but not the T4i.
    I stopped short of doing an image restore on that machine, thinking my installation of Photoshop must have been corrupted when I removed Elements and Preimere Elements, but no...I'm now on an IBM W701 with the same software and I have the same probem.
    If someone from Adobe would like me to send them a file from the T4i, I will.  If I shoot in jpeg, there are no issues.  But I do not shoot in jpeg.  I only did it to see if perhaps it were the SD card.
    Any help would be appreciated.

    With Photoshop CS5 (I think that's what you said) you no longer have access to the latest updates for Camera Raw.
    Photoshop CS5 can only take up to Camera Raw 6.7 (latest version is 7.1, which goes with Photoshop CS6 only). 
    You'll either need to upgrade to Photoshop CS6 or download the free DNG converter and go through the extra step of converting your T4i images to DNG before opening them in Camera Raw 6.7.

  • Tethering with Canon 5D2 or 1D3, still no support for either?

    I have just upgraded to a 5D2 from a 5D and notice there is no tethering support. I have had my 1D3 for over 18 months and still no Tethering support. Is this me or does Aperture still not support the 1D3 or the 5D2?
    Anyone found a work around?

    ya it is disappointing that Canon messed up by changing from standard protocols for tethering to proprietary ones without letting third party companies know the new protocols
    you should be able to use the EOS tethering utility and hot-folder import method used for AP1 until Canon decides to let third party companies know the protocol

  • Tethering with Canon 5DMKII on Mac OS 10.6.8

    Still having trouble with tethering the 5DMKII, has any solved this issue yet? Or do I have to upgrade to Snow Leopard!!?

    If you have any windows computer then you can run the setup CD for this Print Server and configure it with an IP address. Alternately you can get the IP address of this Print Server from the DHCP Client Table. If you router allows static DHCP then you can simply get the MAC address of this print server from the bottom of the unit and configure the Static DHCP for this MAC address you don’t need to configure it with static IP at all.
    Once you have setup the print server and assign the Static IP address, setup the ports on Mac OS.
    On Mac OS, open System Preferences and select ‘Print & Fax’. Click on the "+" icon (lower left) to add a printer. Click on the IP Printer icon (top). Select "Line Printer Daemon – LPD" and do the following:
    •     In the Address field, enter the IP address of the Print Server.
    •     In the Queue field, enter L1.
    •     In the Name field, enter L1.
    •     Select the printer manufacturer from the pull down menu.
    •     Select the printer model from the scroll box.
    •     Click "Add".
    A window should appear showing your newly added printer "L1". Click L1 once to select it. Then click "Printer Setup" (middle right). The Printer Setup window will open. Click on the "Installable Options" pull- down menu and select "Name & Location". The Name and Location window will open. Do the following:
    •     Change Printer Name to the IP address of Print Server
    •     Change Location to IP_[IP of Print Server]
    •     Click on Apply Changes. 

  • Shooting tethered tethered with LR 3 and a D300

      I just finished a photo shoot using a Nikon D300 and shooting tethered into LR3 and Windows 7.  Everything was working fine then my computer said the usb device is unrecognizable.  Until I reboot I cannot restore the connection. Can anyone advise me on this?

    I don't remember what the settings were when I imported the catalog. Whatever the defaults were.
    Whatever happened during import, I should still have the option to add the files when sync'ing a folder? But I don't.
    Neither LR2 nor LR3 will allow me access to the edited DNG files now. I've erased and am rebuilding the catalog (all pertinent info was written to sidecar and/or within the DNG file, so I'm not anticipating any problems with this. It's showing the expected 27,000+ files being imported). I think I'll try building the LR3 catalog the same way when I fire it back up, once I'm sure I'm back up and running in LR2.
    Thanks for the quick response!

  • Tethering with lightroom: performance issue

    hi guys,
    i am shooting raw, tethered from a canon 5d mark II, directly into lightroom 2 on a macbook pro.
    even though i am maxed out on RAM and, running no extra processes, and using a USB2.0 cable
    the whole setup is slooooooooow as hell...
    my questions are:
    - what is holding the system back? is lightroom simply not optimized for tethering?
    - are there ways to improve performance for the mac?
    moreover,
    has anyone created a comparison table to show the options for tethering, with cost, benefits and drawbacks?
    if not, maybe we can do so here with this post.
    best wishes,
    ~nir pengas.

    It's the Mac implementation of Canon's software and the Apple USB 2 connection. Want to seriously speed up tethering on a Mac? Install Bootcamp and run Windows. And, if you think I'm kidding, I'm not...it's what Martin Evening does. On a Mac (running OS X), a Canon 1Ds MIII takes about 9 seconds to transfer. On Windows (on the exact same Mac mind you), the transfer speed is just a bit under 2 seconds...
    So, go ask Apple and Canon what's up with the USB 2 connections under OS X...

  • Aperture 3 tethered with Nikon D300 trouble

    I've been having trouble shooting tethered with Aperture 3 and the Nikon D300. It works for a few shots then it jams with the spinning wheel until i have to force quit. Also the inspector column gets messed up with type over type. I'm assuming apple will issue an update for this but i'm not very impressed. I have been using Capture one, trial version in the meantime to get by until a fix arrives and it has been working fine. Nice fast captures and no BS. <Edited By Host>

    I gave up with shooting tethered in Aperture 3. I now use Capture one 5 Pro from phase one. I use Aperture for the image adjustment because i like the built in retouch tools and the image management (although my search does not work in Aperture 3, waiting for an update). I'm not impressed with Apple software right now.
    Capture one works flawless tethered, the fastest importing i've ever had and didn't take long to get used to the focus tools etc. Try the 30 day free trial and you'll see. When I'm done a shooting session, i just drag the capture folder (with the NEF files) onto a flash drive and import them into Aperture for adjustment.

  • I have a canon t4i would a velbon vs tripod support my camera with a 55 210 lens and a 430 speed li

    will a velbon vs 443d support my canont4i with speedlight 430 and a 55-250 lens

    Max load for that tripod is about 6.6Lbs. So you go weight your gears.

  • I have a Canon Rebel T3i and I need to tether into my Macbook Pro. How can I do that?

    I have a Canon Rebel T3i and I need to tether into my Macbook Pro. How can I do that? I updated my iPhoto to recongize my camera, it does. When connected I see it in the USB utlitiy. But my MacBook Pro says "no camera found." What do I need to do to fix this problem?

    Thanks, Kappy
    I was fooling around with Lightroom and it has a tethering option. I tried it and it worked. But I am still reading my camera manual as you recommeded.

  • Unable to shoot tethered with a Canon 70D

    I am trying to practice shooting tethered for an upcoming shoot. I am unable to get Lightroom and my Canon 70D to connect. I receive the dialog box shown below several seconds after attempting to connect. I went through all the steps on the "Troubleshooting tethered capture in Lightroom" and can shoot tethered using Canon's software. I am using Lightroom 5.3 on a MacBookPro 13 inch with 16 gb ram running system 10.9.1

    Lightroom does not currently support tethering on the 70D.

  • What can you do with a Canon T4i? Look at this!

    Here is an amazing scene of the Milky Way. It is shot entirely with a Canon T4i and a 10-22mm f3.5-4.5mm Canon lens. The lens was set at 10mm.
    This was done by a good friend of mine that I worked with at Hallmark Cards in Kansas City for nearly 40 years. His name is Tom Martinez. He was a master of the darkroom not to mention a great photographer.
    Since retirement he has devoted his time to astro-photography. He gives lectures and classes on how to do it. He has built over a dozen telescopes of different designs culminating with the 30” at our Powell Observatory near Warrensburg, Missouri.
    Tom is published in many star magazines but here is his “Milky Way”.

    EF 70-200mm f2.8 L IS II, Sigma 120-300mm f2.8 EX APO
    Photoshop CS6, ACR 8.7, Lightroom 5.7

    Very nice job.  It's so hard to find dark skies that can show the Milky Way anymore.  I have to drive several hours to find a place with "ok" dark skies (not fantastic... but decent enough to see structure in the Milky Way.)
    Even more amazing is that he managed to get three (mostly) cloudless nights in a row.  That's something that hasn't happened for me all year -- not that I'm bitter about it or anything.  ;-)  (The weather in Michigan has _not_ be kind to us astronomers.  Let's just say no parts on our telescopes are in any danger of wearing out due to excessive use.)
    I appreciate that he put his exposure info at the end.   Last year I used a 5D II and the EF 14mm f/2.8L II USM to take some Milky Way shots at the Great Lakes Star Gaze.  I found I could take exposures up to about 45 seconds with no noticeable elongation of the stars.  At about 1 minute I could see a tiny bit of elongation (stationary tripod... not tracking.)  This year I have a 5D III and am looking forward to using that to do more imaging. 
    Thanks for sharing that.

  • Trouble tethering my Canon 1Ds mk II with Lightroom 4.1 on Mac OSX 10.6.8.

    I had to get a Mac just to be able to use tethered shooting with my brand new 1Ds mk III (yes, brand new after 8 years not being used by it's previous owner, had 200 exposures on it)
    Windows XP was not an option and Canon support told me that they never had any intentions towards supporting the Camera on Win Vista or Win 7 (even though these OSs were released when the camera was still the top end of their product line on the market!)
    Long story short, I researched compatibility for Lightroom and found out, that 4.1 would be the last to support the 1Ds mk II. (Can somebody confirm that?!)
    I bought LR 4 last year and am waiting for LR6 with my Win machine, so I installed LR 4 on the mac and denied any updates to be able to use my Camera..
    The mac runs OSX 10.6.8, which is, to my knowledge, the last version to support the 1Ds mk II and it's EOS utility, etc. (How about that one?)
    Sure, I should've bought the 1Ds mk III, considering all the money I invested just to be able to properly use the 1Ds mk II.. but that's not the issue here and if I should happen to have any success with my work, I will upgrade to a used 1Dx in a few years.
    To my problem at hand:
    I installed LR4.1 on my mac and set up tethered shooting with the Camera connected to the mac. (It works fine with EOS utility too)
    Camera with its settings is recognized by the tool and can be set off remotely.
    Pictures are displayed and develop preset is applied.
    However, sometimes it works just fine but then the camera stops taking pictures (Exposure is made, with AF, Shutter, etc. working fine, but pictures aren't saved to CF card nor transferred to Lightroom) Also, sometimes the camera isn't recognized anymore.. This happened repeatedly within 10 to 20 exposures, so not a rare issue here!
    When I turn the camera off and back on, it sometimes does and sometimes doesn't work again..
    same goes for the firewire cable that sometimes does and sometimes doesn't reset the tool when I unplug it.
    I also sometimes noticed the CF-card LED continuously indicating whatever.. had to remove the CF card to stop it from doing that.
    In short:
    What could be the problem with my setup and is there an easy way around that?
    I really depend on this feature working properly.
    Your help is really appreciated
    Mischa

    My camera is a 1Ds mk II..
    and for that one it says
    All versions tested. All versions tested. Supported only through Lightroom 4.1.
    however, it also says
    Windows XP, Vista, 7; Mac OS X 10.5 or 10.6
    which is plain wrong, because Canon never supported any drivers for Windows Vista or Win 7, not to speak of XP 64bit. (You cannot connect the camera via firewire, without the device drivers!)

  • After 1.2.1 Firmware update cannot tether with Aperture 3 and Canon 5D Mk3

    I am now unable to tether my laptop with my Canon 5D Mk3 in Aperture 3.4.4 after I updated the firware on the camera. Aperture detects the camera but the capture button is greyed out. And when I press any buttons on the camera, it says it is busy. Note: I am able to tether camera and laptop using Lightroom 4.
