Until recently if you wanted to use your Nikon to shoot tethered with your Mac (snap pictures and bypass the SD card and just save your pictures right to a folder on your Mac...) you had to dish out some serious cash (ahem, $150 bones for a proprietary Nikon application). Well, not anymore! Now it's easy and FREE to shoot tethered from your Nikon or Canon dslr camera. Just head on over to
www.sofortbildapp.com and download their application called Sofortbild. It connects automatically to your camera when you just simply plug it in and turn it on.
You get to see and edit any of your camera settings right from within the application. On top of that you can access the shutter right from your computer, you can set up bracketing and HDR support, also self timer and interval shooting controls.
Do yourself a favor and set this app up, if not to use the computer controls, have it save images to a folder that you set Lightroom to watch and auto import from! Have fun!!!
