Capture One iPad tethering

X-T4 tethered to M1 iPad Pro

Tethering is now available in the Capture One iPad app.

Tried it yesterday, tethering my X-T4 to an M1 iPad Pro. Raw image transfer was very quick. Great to be able to see images on a large screen (and full resolution) without bringing a laptop.

Prior to this update (released 20th Sept 2022), the app wasn't particularly useful to me as you couldn't change/view film simulations or tether. Still not sure a subscription model makes sense on top of the desktop license.

Film simulations can now be used/changed

Glad they added the sims.

Re: Capture One iPad tethering

I am curious how the iPad version compares in function and performance to running desktop Capture One on a Microsoft Surface. The upcomfing Surface devices are supposed to have 12 generation Intel chips, so processor performance should be decent, but I expect the integrated graphics won't be a great solution for heavy editing.

Re: Capture One iPad tethering

Is it wired tethering only, or is wireless available as well? If wired only, did you need to use any particular cable, or does it work with a regular USB-C cable?

Re: Capture One iPad tethering

Does the ipad version do all the same editing?

Do you need one of the new M chips for it to work reasonably fast?

According to Capture One “Wireless tethering is not available on any Fujifilm camera.”

I’ve tried a standard Apple USB-C cable and a cable from IKEA without issues.

Re: Capture One iPad tethering

How long did the battery of the iPad last? Is the iPad battery charged from the camera battery? Regards Peter

No, it's a much simpler version than the desktop app. There's no layers or masking (yet), it's mostly global adjustments.

I've only tested it on the M1 iPad so can't comment on the performance with older models

The camera is charged from the iPad rather than the other way around. I can't comment on the iPad battery performance as my tests haven't been over a prolonged period.
