I do hope this feature is added to Nikon camera tethered shooting at some point in the future. However, this has never been true for shooting with Nikon, and remains the case today. On Canon, the photos taken during the tethered session are saved to the camera’s memory card as well as to your computer, which seems like a no-brainer in a situation as prone to failure as tethering. With this latest update, the tethering functionality between supported Canon and Nikon cameras is the same, except for one key feature that I still fail to understand why it is not included.
When the session is complete, click the X on the capture bar to exit tethered capture, turn off your camera, and disconnect the USB cable. Alternatively, if you are using a gray card, color checker, or some other technique for adjusting white balance, you can take a photo with that in the scene, then use the Develop module to make any adjustments you wish (like white balance), and then choose Same as previous from the menu to have all the settings you applied to the first photo automatically applied to the rest of the photos in the session.
From there, using the capture bar, you can choose to apply a preset that will be applied as each photo appears on screen. The first step to editing is to customize your Raw Defaults to include desired settings. An additional benefit is to be able to begin the editing process while you are still shooting. This allows for checking focus, adjusting composition and lighting, and seeing smaller details while you are shooting as the photos are saved to your computer. Clearly the main benefits of shooting tethered, whether you have live view or not, is to be able to see the photos on your much larger computer screen right after capture. With the camera connected and the session started, its time to make some photographs. Be sure to check out last week’s post if you missed it. This week I wrap up my look at what’s new in shooting tethered in Lightroom Classic, as well as some alternatives to consider depending on your needs and camera bodies.
