Canon 5D classic : tethered shooting on mac

p.1 #1 · Canon 5D classic : tethered shooting on mac

Hi, I typically use windows based computers for my editing / computer work.... However, I have an upcoming shoot that I need to do tethered. I have a Macbook Pro running 10.7.5 that I can use for shooting tethered....

For those of you using the original 5D and mac, what software will allow me to shoot tethered? I just need to use the laptop as a preview.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Sorry to say I can't help with the Mac but wanted to tell you I don't believe the 5D classic is supported in Windows for tethering I was never able to get it to work. Hopefully someone has better experience.

Just wanted to update: Another forum member helped me out.... I searched the internet for a solution, which didn't exist. The following works for me: Use Image Capture first. Once it recognizes your camera, leave it open. Open lighroom and start a tether session.

Works for me, as I can use lightroom to shoot an image and preview, but not adjust shutter speed, aperture, etc.

Hope this is helpful to someone!
