Comments on: How To Tether a Nikon D4 or D800 To Lightroom [UPDATED] http://fstoppers.com/how-to-tether-a-nikon-d4-or-d800-to-lightroom Video Blog for Creative Professionals Tue, 18 Jun 2013 05:11:00 +0000 hourly 1 By: Gus Samarcohttp://fstoppers.com/how-to-tether-a-nikon-d4-or-d800-to-lightroom/comment-page-1#comment-59059 Gus Samarco Fri, 21 Dec 2012 19:24:00 +0000 http://fstoppers.com/?p=47880#comment-59059 This was driving me crazy until I spent some time testing it last night. Here’s what I get, independently if I use a long or short cable, desktop or laptop:

Using Aperture and shooting RAW: Camera alternates between connected and disconnected on Aperture, it just doesn’t work

Using Aperture and shooting JPEG: Everything works flawless.

Using Lightroom 4 (installed just to test things out) and shooting RAW: Everything works flawless.

I updated the Camera Firmware prior to this and I’m using the latest release of Aperture.

I’d appreciate any input.

Thanks

It looks like my source from Adobe was inaccurate, and that is good enough reason for me to redo this tutorial.  My apologies to Nikon and you guys for releasing the inaccurate information.  New video should be posted shortly. :)
