Shooting tethered to pc (Nikon)

[Daryl]

Hi Guys, Anyone shoot tethered with Nikon?

We use Fuji S5's with our software but updating pc's Vista and Win 7 are causing glitches.

And as we are now moving onto Nikon D300s. Just wondered what worked?

Camera = Laptop= ID software

Thanks in advance.

Nikon Camera Control Pro works. Try the trial and see.
Afaik, lightroom 3 also works.

Camera Control is about $180 to purchase though which is just silly as that's near the price of lightroom. http://www.diyphotobits.com is a free ware app you can try, I haven't yet as it will mean digging out my old windows laptop that I use when I can't use my mac for something.

This works great, download the 5.2 version. It supports D300 with Vista and Win7

LR3 works well but only shoots to PC not to the card in the camera. Ideally I'd like to have the choice.

I think thats a Nikon thing as I vaguely remember it writing to both when I last used it, might be confusing with eos utility

If money isn't an issue, I'd second the Nikon Camera Control Pro.

I use this for my timelapse shooting

The Nikon version is NKRemote

It shoots to camera card and Bridge & the later one is supposed to use Lightroom as well. The earlier version only downloaded jpgs but I didn't care as the RAW files were on the camera and I could just download to computer later.

What ever ! its free so must be worth a go.............
