Canon 1Dx ethernet tethered and Lightroom5
« on: September 13, 2013, 11:47:07 am »

I have a shoot coming up for which the editor want me to tether. (I've never really liked shooting tethered, except in strict studio settings, and greatly prefer using CF cards.) What I love about the 1Dx is using the ethernet cable instead of the slow USB2. What I don't really like is having to use the EOS Utility and DPP. I'd prefer to use Lightroom or something else. I haven't really found a way to make that happen. (Capture One said specifically to my request that they don't support the ethernet tether, so that's out.) I was curious if anyone else was able to get the 1Dx to work ethernet cable tethered with something other than Canon's software? Thanks.

Well you could go half way (which is what I do) and use EOS Utility to control the camera, then use a watched folder to bring the images into LR. Works well for me!
