D7000

[Vic1]

6.0.1, and still no D7000 tethered capabilities, or am I doing something wrong?

[Drew]

We're working on it.
Until we can provide it however, just tether with Nikon software and use the Hot Folder option in C1.

Thanks Drew.

Hopefully soon...

Any updates on tethered support for this camera?

[Vic1]

D7000 tethering please. I don't want to have to purchase the Nikon software. I'll never use it once the D7000 is tether-able. Do you folks need someone to beta test it? I'm volunteering...

Why would it say it supports Nikon D7000 and then does not allow tethering ? as of 2-15-11

I'm afraid I'm going to have to agree w/ NN216538UL, 6.1.1, and still no D7000 tethering. Its been out since October. I understand everyone working on the new software update, and the new backs, but when can we expect this to happen?

I have a shoot tomorrow and I would have loved being able to shoot tethered. I got excited when I saw I had an update. I guess I'm shooting to the card again.

As listed in the release notes, we have RAW file support for the D7000 but not tethered support. In order to support the D7000 it must be supported in the SDK from Nikon. In other words we can support raw files as soon as a camera hits the market, but for tethered support we have to wait for the manufacturer to release an updated SDK... this frequently happens a few months after a camera release cycle.

Thanks for the detailed report Jon, but could you please tell us what an SDK is.
Thanks

Short for Software Development Kit. It contains the software tools that allow 3rd party developers to support the manufacturer's hardware, in this case Nikon's.

[Vic1]

Hmmm. Okay I guess its time to light a fire under Nikon then.

I'll head the their site next and log into my account to ask them.

Thanks!

The SDK for the D7000 is located here: https://sdk.nikonimaging.com/apply/

It has been out since December 21, 2010.

Answer/Reply not good enough.

The ability to open RAW files in my opinion in not FULLY SUPPORTED. Maybe it should be support with an asterisk or something. Tethering is the only reason a Nikon owner would purchase.

is tethering supported on Canon's newest camera? is there some brand favoritism ? just sayin seeing as how the SDK has been available via) Vic1

Both Release note and knowledge base article list which cameras that is supported for tethered shooting

While waiting I am pretty sure you can use this workaround for D2X

It should work do D7000 as well.

YES, IT WORKS!

Instead of copying XModule.bundle, just copy and install ALL bundle files.
