Canon R5R6: A Complete Guide to Tethered Shooting
Advantages
Photographer: It is more convenient to observe the picture and adjust it in time; the parameter adjustment in lr can be applied in batches, and it can be synchronized to the subsequent photos with one key, which can save a lot of time in post-production.
Fuhuadao team: It is more convenient to observe the real-time shooting pictures and adjust the model's clothing and hairstyle in time.
Clients: In some projects, clients will have on-site supervisors. Online shooting allows clients to make suggestions and make adjustments in a timely manner, effectively reducing client communication costs in the entire workflow.

Process
1. Use the cable to connect the camera and the computer, and see the computer prompt and the camera interface that the connection is successful
2. Open lightroom--menu--tethered shooting--edit folder--OK, you can start tethered shooting (software such as capture one also has similar functions)
3. There are toolbars and shutter buttons to control camera parameters in the online screen, and you can also control the camera shooting parameters through the computer.
4. You can make real-time adjustments in the Edit Photos section of Lr, or apply presets for the photos you have taken. After the adjustment is complete, press "Same as before" in the toolbar to synchronize it to the subsequent photos in real time.
Attention
1. Do not turn off the power of the camera during tethered shooting, otherwise you need to go through the process link again after turning it on. There is an interval in the middle of shooting, just turn off the camera screen, and half-press the shutter when you need to shoot to resume the online shooting state. In the article about camera custom settings in my homepage, there is a function of setting "Automatically turn off the screen".
2. The specifications of the online cable are generally divided into length and interface type. At present, I am using a 10-meter length + type C interface cable. Generally speaking, the wire of the same specification has a longer length, a larger range of motion, and a slower transmission speed.
3. The cable fixing clip is mainly used to fix the cable at one end of the camera to prevent the camera interface from being damaged by pulling the cable or accidental situations; the computer end is usually fixed by tape.
4. The photo files taken online will be stored in the computer and the camera at the same time, so there is no need to export the camera photos repeatedly. However, if the connection is interrupted during the shooting, please check the photos in the camera when arranging the original images.
