Capturing Images as You Work

For certain kinds of shoots, such as product shots done within your office studio, you
may want to immediately see test shots on your computer to check on lighting and
other production factors. You can connect your camera directly to your computer and
have each shot immediately appear in an Aperture project as you shoot. You can
review an image in detail, make production changes, and then shoot and immediately
see the results again. This process is called tethered shooting, and it’s ideal for checking
out the details of a shot while setting up the final shot.

Note: For a list of cameras that Aperture supports for tethered shooting, go to:

. See your camera’s handbook for

information about setting up your camera for tethered shooting.
