I already have LRC/C1/Phocus so simply don't want or need it. If using TT's tool gives you access to controls or tools (like LV) that you do not have in LR/LRC then it might offer value for you. Summary - no need to buy anything from TT unless you want something that their tool provides that you cannot already get from another solution. HOWEVER - if you are very familiar with, say, LRC, then you might want to use LR/LRC rather than change to another solution like Capture One. It is TRUE that many NONE Hasselblad studio shooters prefer Capture One - not least because it has perhaps the best skin tools in any solution and it has a good tethering solution including Live View. For example, when shooting portraits, the system pays attention to the upper body, too, maintaining focus position when your subject briefly turns away from the. Currently after a long discussion with adobe I have rolled my version back to LRC 11.4.1 while they fix an issue with Apple Silicon on the Mac Studio Ultra - and this has caused me pain, including I cannot use LRC for tethering a Z9. LR/LRC appears to be VERY version dependent and can be adversely affected by, for example, upgrades to macOS. BUT - like NX studio there is NO live view and the controls are limited. The manufacturers provide additional tools - like focus stacking (or bracketing) - in "their" products which are not available in 3rd party tools.ĪND of course LR/LRC can also be used for tethering. similarly when shooting with an Phase One XF or XT and IQ4 I use Capture One 22. So when shooting my X2D I use Hasselblad's Phocus 3.7. I prefer to use the Native Manufacturer's tools when there is nothing better. TetherTools business model is to provide products and solutions in support of Tethering - most are good, particularly wireless tethering, but not free. Yes and there are a combination of Free tools - like NX tether that works with NX Studio, Snapbridge works (well sort of) AND there are a range of capture software solutions available. They'll toss the job off to someone else unless it's a huge job. You won't find a single digital tech in LA/NY/CHI who will give LR any time. LR tethering is also pretty terrible.Īnyone who tethers their cameras for a living, uses Capture One, period. Nobody uses Smart Shooter unless there's a damn good reason too. Smart Shooter 4 is a digital photography work flow application for tethered shooting. for what? Can't you tether to LR without this?
