I started to try out the tethered function of C1 Pro v3.7 with my Canon 20d, but couldn’t get it to work. Had to roam the support board to find out that this does not work with Mac OS X 10.4 Tiger yet. There’s an update coming.
So what’s tethered? You can connect your digital camera (at least the supported once) with a Firewire or USB cable and have the camera dump the pictures you take immediately to the computer where you can check sharpness and exposure with a high resolution screen. I’m going to use this when photographing stilleben, food and portraits in a studio environment. First you have all the storage space in the portable computer, and then all the ability to do measure for whitebalance and such.
I’ll give you a rundown on how it went when they release the update.
