Been testing out a few programs for tethered shooting & ran across this beauty. ControlMyNikon | Finest Nikon DSLR tethering and Nikon remote control They offer a 14 day fully functional trial period & i must say that i am very impressed with the feature list. The full version is just under $30...

Hey guys, Am trying to tether my D7000 for capture via LightRoom (or similar) on a 32 bit Win 8.1 (friend's laptop) But neither LR nor digiCam Control sees the camera as attached. I am able to access the camera via LR in the import screen, but won't show up during tethering. I've tried...

11 million people have quit Facebook since 2011. That's 11 million people who got smart in 3 years ;) So you are right, people are leaving FB & i think it's a good thing. I've seen too many relationships strained & broken thanks to FB (NOTE -I mention FB in particular & not social media) There...

Thanks to @Browncoat for this... After reading his comments on another thread, i was keeping a lookout for eye-fi cards And no surprise there were not sold 'directly' here in India... What was available was 8GB at around 100 USD So next best stop, eBay (been buying on it for years, so am quite...

Revisiting this aspect... This would perhaps be answered best by those who have a portfolio or those who know folks who do. Am trying to understand what is considered good/bad while making a presentation of sorts. I understand that simply put, it must be a collection of your best shots in the...

@Heka I think that's just rubbish what the customer support told you.. Cos everyone i know uses it in the setup like you stated.. Anyways, why not try using it in Slot 1? Set Slot 1 as JPG & Slot 2 as RAW (am guessing that's possible) if that doesn't work then better get a replacement or your...
