  • Camera mode - Set the camera to USB Tether Shooting mode
  • Tethering Plugins - Select Edit > Plugin Manager to turn off all tether plugins installed in Lightroom Classic.
  • Camera settings - If you can't change the camera settings from the Tether bar, ensure that:
    • Set the shutter speed dial to T - timed
    • Set the switch on the lens to A - auto aperture
    • Set the ISO to C - command 

Set up and start Tethered Capture
