Lightroom :: 4 Doesn't Recognize Canon 7D In Tethering Mode
Jan 27, 2013
I'm trying to get working tethering mode in LR4 with my Canon 7D and I have "No Camera Detected" in control panel of tethering capture and BUSY indicator is ON on my camera. It works just fine using EOS Utility: I can do shots, change camera settings and so on but I really want this feature inside of LR because of variety of features of LR.
System info from LR is:
Lightroom version: 4.3 [865747]
Operating system: (Build 9200)
Version: 6.2 [9200]
Application architecture: x64
System architecture: x64
I am not able to use the tethering with my Canon 5D Mk3, the camera reads busy and I am not able to use any functions on the camera s wel, changing modes, speed, ISO etc.Ihave the newest version of the Canon solution installed and it works there, but not in LR4.
I have tried everything to tether my original Canon 5D not the mark series. I love the camera and want to dedicate it to a project. I have to tether so I can see on screen, rename files etc. I connect it and 2 times it recognized the Canon5D, could shoot though. Ive tried everything trashing the preffs, etc. I am on Mac using 10.7.5. Ive even tried to use the Canon Utility to connect, the same problem. Ive seen some posts saying LR4.4 doesnt support the Canon5D anymore.
I would rather put the camera to use rather then buy another to dedicate to this ongoing shoot.
I have done everything I can find on the web (reloaded files, downloaded new files, you name it) and LR5 still won't let me "use" my AVI files. I can see the snippets,, they appear to be there, but I cannot play them, edit them, scrub them, export them etc. Suggestions other than to dump Lightroom (especially since the Adobe chat service is useless)?
I noticed a problem with LR5.2. When creating a catalog for travel with dynamic image rendering, if you want to add some pictures in this catalog it doesn't recognize the existing images, so we have the exact same selection between "all images' and "new images". I made a few tests and with a normal catalog there is no problems but apparently the dynamic images are not recognized as existing images.
I bachup with an external hard drive(ehd), itcotains folders fro 2007 to 2013 plus a "test"folder. when i plug it into my computer and open light room,in the left hand pannel where the ehd appears, it shows all the folders except 2009 ,2013 and the "test" folder. why doesn't L.R. read all of the ehd.,,
I used to mark images yellow in LR if I needed to do further work on them in Photoshop. Once exported as jpegs, I'd open them in Bridge and sort for color labels. In the last year or so, Bridge stopped seeing those labels. It doesn't work in CS4 or CS6.
So I found the ad on Adobe that said that the 6D was supported in Lightroom 4.3, and the Lightroom page said that it would work on OSX 10.6.8. So I bought it.
Upon installing it, I find that it cannot see (does not show) 6D RAW files when IMPORT is pressed. It shows JPEGS if I have them in the camera, and it knows the camera is there in the import dialog -- shows its name -- but no RAW files.
I checked for updates to Lightroom 4.3, it says there are none, I'm "up to date."
DPP sees the RAW files fine and imports them. So the USB connection, etc., is working.
I'm sure I'm missing something, and I really need RAW files, not JPEGs.
Lightroom 5 doesn't any longer show GPS info from canon 6D in imported rawfiles. This regards MacOS-version. It works in iPhoto and in Lightroom 5 for Windows 8!
Lightroom 4 catalog does not recognize photos when external hard drive switched to a different USB port. The photos are in My Photopraphs in an external hard drive. I recently had to switch ports and now the catalog can't find the photos.
The tethered capture doesn't seem to be working in lightroom 4.1 RC with the canon 5D mk3. The camera is detected with the correct name, but no camera parameter is recognized, and the camera can't take any photo.
I've experienced this both on Windows 7 64bits and Mac OS X. Importing canon 5D mk3 pictures works fine.
I use pse9. I have been shooting with a canon T3i in raw, cr2 mode and uploading to and editing with pse9 just fine. I recently upgraded to a canon 70D and pse9 does not recognize raw cr2 files. It says they are the wrong file type.
I always use LR in full screen mode. But every time I open it, it always opens in the collpsed small window mode. Never the full screen way I closed it. Is this designed in, or is there a setting someplace I just have not found?
In Library mode, the Navigator does what I'm used to from previous versions of Lightroom -- it shows a preview of the currently selected photo. However, when I go into "Develop" mode, the Navigator chooses another photo from the collection I'm working on (always the same one, it seems) and shows that one. This is frustrating, because I like to use the Navigator in Develop mode to see previews of an edit I'm working on. It's also just nonsensical that it shows a different photo.
I can't finda list of cameras that are supported in LR5. There is a list for LR4but not LR5. In particular I have three cameras that all work withtethering but I don't have any working software to use thisfacility.
Canon G10 Leica DIgilux 2
Both these cameras came with tethering software that was subsequently dissabled in software updates (Not firmware updates)
I also have the EOS-M and for reasons I don'y understand Canon won't let EOS utility operate the camera even though this functionality exists within the camera because CaptureOnesupports EOS-tethering.
