#CreateNoMatterWhat #BetterWhenYouTether
This was an AWESOME video with NO EXTRA music noise or rambling, just right to the point. Count me as a new subscriber. Thanks
Awesome, thank you! I can't always promise there won't be extra rambling though! 🤣
That's the same thing I was thinking!! He goes straight into the topic and I love how he breaks the information down without making me (or you..hopefully) feel daft. Thank you!
Thank you so much for your work. I ordered the cable.
Glad I could help!
Glad I found this video on the Facebook page! I've looked into running a cable tether cause my wifi on my camera won't send raw images, its nice for going over images right away with a client, but your video definitely pushed me towards getting a cable. When I'm running a shoot on my own without anyone to shoot video I use a hotshoe GoPro mount and I mount a gopro to my head hahaha
It's really super simple if you have the software. Grab a cable and give it a try!
Thanks for another great video!
My pleasure!
Great content!
Dude You Rule !!!!!!!!!!!!! Thanks for a Great Channel With a Real Photog doing Real Photog Things and Really Producing Pro Photos :) :) :)
Do you have a video of tethering set up in your capture one software!!! I LOOOOOVE how babygirl went straight to the Mac and began checking for pics
Totally awesome!!!
Thanks Alista!!
Thanks I need to start targeting
can you backup the files onto your flashcard and computer? or are the files only saved to the PC?
Damn this was CLUTCHHHHH
Hi ,
Every time I take a picture in vertical it shows in capture one horizontal , how do I change that ???
Also when I take a picture it goes 2 times in the screen
any chance we can get an in depth breakdown of lighting, and different approaches to using strobes, and placement of them?
Hey Chase, I get into it a little bit in my next video - Retouching Breakdown II. I hope to be able to go more in-depth when I can start shooting again.
Is it possible to tether using lightroom (or any other software) on ipad? If it is, then which is better using ipad or pc?
Would this same set up have allowed for a Live View on the iMac of what your camera is seeing if you were in video-mode rather than taking pictures?
Ordering a cable now!
Have some fun with it!
Great video! Are the pictures still save on our camera when we use tethering?
Just on the computer!
can i only shot by tethering or also make a video? thx
What if the camera. Is not detected?. I'm discouraged. Every camera I choose it says it is not detected
Great video Question I have a webcam logitech 4k camera for recording that sits in front of me while I record, I need a L shape cord coming out the back of my logitech camera, and connecting into my pc, will this work? Any help would be appreciated, I bought a cord but it doesn't capture my face, it's just a data cord,
Thank you so much James. This is so helpful. I had a question: Can you tether to an iPad Pro (new) that has a USB-C Port?
Not sure - it would depend on the software/app capabilities.
Can these cables be used to stream live video? I am using cables to bond internet connections for higher quality streaming.
Thank you for this video, I have ordered the cable and plan to shot this way for up and coming school photos. My only concern is, how do you focus? With my D850, I can't use live-view on the camera so how do I focus on the eye prior to taking the shot? Are you doing it in capture one?
I use my camera just like I normally would!
good video, can you save a file on a card as well? I use a D3s tethered to a pc with air direct, lost a group shot due to wifi drop. a back up in camera would help. I have a card in camera but file only goes to pc, not compact flash card.
Hey David, I can't save to my card as well the way I'm setup. I believe there are other setups that will allow it though.
Thanks but how do I use it with the Sony A7RII
can you use any ubc cables that can transfer data or is Tether Tools cable are made different from other usb cables?
I think you need something more robust for fast tethering speeds
Subscribed! Great video… good looking puppy too - labradoodle ?
Thanks - Havanese!
Is it ok to tether for still life & product photography? I do have active Adobe subscription, shall I use lightroom or it is better to use capture one pro?
Still life and product photography are great for tethering! Try Lightroom first and if you have issues give C1 a try.
@@QuantzPhoto I've just bought the cable (3 days ago), I'm so excited to give it a try using LR as you advised 😍. Thank you
Do you have to set up a folder or something in computer to tell it where to send photos?
Yep...real easy
is there a way to have lightroom apply a preset automatically as you take pictures?
Probably but I'm using CaptureOne here
I will try this again tomorrow, I have the Nikon D7000, and it is not working, it tells me it is connected, as it beeps and the camera model number shows, but that is all that is happening. I am a windows user.
Can I record video by using your tutorial...?
what software is that
?
Are these photos saved in the computer? Or are they are only accessible through capture One?
They are saved on the computer and can be accessed with any program that can open them.
Thank you 😊
Is the quality of the photos tethered to CaptureOne the same quality as the photos that are taken when not tethered?
Yes. There is no change in quality.
What lens you're using in your Nikon?
That was a few years ago but probably the 24-70 2.8
Is it possible to tether to an ssd like Samsung t5 I'm really new at this
Yes it is possible to tether to an external drive. You just need to set the location in the software.
Can you still see the images on the camera LCD, as you shoot, and can images be saved to camera cards or only to the computer?
No jus the computer but it's MUCH larger! I believe they just updated CaptureOne so you can save images on the computer and your memory card.
@@QuantzPhoto I get that it is larger but the problem I have is when photographing people outside, the art director can view the monitor but I would rather view the camera LCD as the action is fluid. I meant to say thanks for you video, very well done!
@@michaelventura5990 you can activate Capture Pilot through the software and it will show the images on an iPad that you can have right next to you on set.
Just curious- why captureone over Lightroom? Lightroom can be quirky at times...
CaptureOne was originally created for this purpose and in my experience has always been more stable. It’s just a bit of an investment if you already are a Lightroom user.
What cable did you use?
One from Tethertools.com
is this method can be use on pc or laptop?
Sure!
I dont use LR, do you know if this will work with ACR?
You'll need some kind of capture software.
@@QuantzPhoto My mistake, I should have said”Bridge”.
I tethered my D850 to a monitor via mini HDMI but see nothing. Does it have to be tethered to a computer using lightroom? Thanks!
I always use USB connections for tethering
Yeah I switched to usb and lightroom classic..seems to be working fine.
@@dhardy9296 I need to know if tethering hdmi mini to lightroom pc works. I got the Canon 750D. That camera only has a hdmi mini and A/V output
You never show how to make the camera talk to the Computer
Is there compatible cameras
Check the tether tools website and you could probably find a list!
me exaspera ver agarrar un lente asi.
whats the programs name Mr. can you say Please?
CaptureOne
my camera information doesn't pop up Nikon d3500
But can someone be editing photos while you're continuously feeding them in?
Sure!
Ps I just comment I don't think I need tethering just a L shape USB cord on my logitech running into my pc, ANY HELP WOULD BE COOL, have a awsome day
Mine come from TetherTools and should be linked in the description.
BUT WHAT SOFTWARE??!! lol I'm so frustrated with just trying to find some way to mirror my camera onto my screen. I can't seem to find a verified developer software, to mirror to the computer, for free. I thought your video was a great 101 vid, but you didn't say anything about the biggest detail.... which is that this isn't just a simple plug and play, it REQUIRES a software. Are there any options that are free?? Or are we nailed down to having to purchase something? Im a full-time mom, and I just to camera things as a hobbiest, so I wasn't trying to spend the households income on my hobby habits. 😕
Hey Jaqui, yes tethering requires software. I use CaptureOne but there are others available but I just don't know if anything is free out there. Depending on your camera there might be a included software where you can live you and capture using it.
@@QuantzPhoto Hey! So kind of you to reply! Sorry for the pure frustration capital text. 😂 So I have a Nikon 3400, I gave up a few years ago on trying to use it for video capturing at all, because of this exact predicament. But now I again have the need for video. So I’m back at it attempting again. I found a few people mention this one software that the developer just asks for donations if you enjoy it. It’s frequently removed from the Apple Store because of “a complaint”, which in todays politics just means that someone with deep pockets dislikes it. 😂 I ended up rolling the dice hesitantly on that last night. And to my shock and awe….. ITS WORKS! Not only does it give you the full screen mirror, but also you have full camera control on it. Now I just have to dink around with settings and such, to try and get the flow of how to quickly do what I want with it.
It’s called dslrdashboard.info is the website link, and then u click on the downloads tab to view different OS choices and DL.
But maybe you can answer a simple question because I’m new to all the tethering things, as a Nikon owner. Does the camera sort of lock up most of its settings once tethered? That seems to be what I’m noticing, but there’s no clear or direct communication telling you that you need to get settings gathered before you initiate the tether. But I’m basically seeing them mostly unchangable plugged in, and I recall that being the case years ago when I just plugged the camera into a TV for viewing too. So like for instance, would I need to get all my desired settings for a video set up before I plugged it in? Or is it only going to do this on pictures? And how do I know what’s adjustable tethered, versus what’s locked in?
I appreciate your time and opinion too btw. 🙏🏽♥️
You are speaking in a Monotone voice. I feel asleep through most of it.
I agree! 🤣
i just tried to connect my d850 tethered and my photos app just keeps popping up and closing real fast like crazy, it won't stop! also capture one says camera not found but the photos app still overrides anything.. I have to unplug the tether cable it to make it stop..any solution to this? using a 2017 IMAC
There’s a preference you need to turn off in the photos app that tells it to startup whenever you connect a camera. Turn that off and hopefully everything else will work!
