Tethered Live View



  1. Model Version Added Required Run Modes File Support Tethered/Live View Notes; Fujifilm GFX 100S: 14.1.0: Express Fujifilm/Fujifilm/Pro: RAF: RAF: Yes/Yes: Fujifilm/Pro required for tethering + Live View.
  2. Motion – shoot when motion is detected during live view. Now you can literally capture images of those elusive backyard birds while you are off doing something else. Many of our users do this, with great results. Powerpoint Remote – shoot when a button is pressed. A great inexpensive remote that can be used during live view.


Today Adobe released their March 2021 Lightroom CC and Lightroom Classic versions:

Join Richard Harrington for an in-depth discussion in this video, Using tethered live view, part of Learning Tethered Shooting. There are two small windows and 2 large windows. The two large windows are dedicated to the live view and the camera controls. In default arrangement they are as shown in the screenshot below, with the settings on the right and the large live view on the left. You can re-size the live view window but you can’t re-size the setting window.

Two new Nikon related updates:

Tethered Live View

We are sharing an early preview of the Tethered Live View feature for Nikon cameras for you to test and try out. We’d love to hear your feedback as we develop and improve this feature for you. When active, the live view from the camera will appear in a re-sizeable window with the option to rotate the orientation. Feature focus control buttons will also appear in the tether bar when enabled by the camera and lens settings, including Auto-Focus. Support for Z-series camera coming soon.

New in Lightroom desktop and mobile: Lightroom desktop and mobile now provide a new profile to support Apple ProRaw images. These images will now be imported using the new profile by default. With this new support, the imported ProRaw images will better match the in-camera experience.

The latest Adobe CC subscription plan rates can be found here (see also this page). A free Lightroom CC trial is available on this page (no credit card required). More information on the different Lightroom versions is available here and here. The different Adobe Creative Cloud options are described here.

  • Just want to say that I LOVE this software !! I use an older Nikon D200 with a grip and while I can't tether into Lightroom, I can tether into Digicam control and I can turn it on and off, switch lenses and just keep going on my shoots and it never fails me smile emoticon,thank you so much, keep up the great work.

  • This is fantastic! I have it on my HTPC attached to a 50' plasma TV in my recroom / photo studio. With my D7000 attached to the PC via USB I can see the images on the big screen as I shoot. Very cool stuff!
