Apple Aperture 2 - Manual (Page 136)

136 Part I Interface and Acquisition
To use tethered shooting, you first connect your camera to the computer using a USB
or FireWire cable. You then select a project for the images to be stored in. Aperture
provides a Tether Settings dialog for choosing your tethered shooting settings, and you
can use this dialog to specify any other import settings (just as you would normally
specify import settings in the Import dialog).
After starting a session, you can use Aperture to view and capture images while at your
computer. You use the Aperture Tether HUD to control your camera and take photos as
you work.
These import options are
the same as those in the
Import dialog.
