Hello everyone,
Until now I have been tethering my D800 to a laptop using a USB cable and Lightroom. I take a picture with the camera, wait for it to show on the laptop, review it and adjust settings or composition as necessary. So far, this has worked fine for macros and landscape.
Now I am in the need of a different workflow. I need take a picture and review it myself on camera intermediately after taking it and have an assistant double check it on the laptop. The assistant will be looking for details that I might miss on the spot but it can be delayed several seconds. I will keep shooting and images should get buffered while they get tethered.
The problem that I am facing is that all software that I have tried, either:
1. Downloads all files to the PC, not leaving a copy on the camera (scary). I cannot review them on the camera.
2. Leaves a copy on the camera, but the preview button is disabled. Photos can only be reviewed on the PC, not on the camera.
I have reviewed all setting on the camera and configuration options on software like Lightroom, Control My Nikon, Capture One 8, digiCamControl. Same is happening on an Android tablet using Helicon Remote and DslrDashboard.
Any ideas or suggestions are very welcome.
Regards!
