I have a need to have photos taken either on a modern Nikon or on a modern Canon DSLR automatically be transfered via USB cable to a Windows hard disk.
It would work like this - at an event, a photographer would roam around and take photos of people. The camera, meanwhile, is connected constantly to a tablet running Win7 via USB. Each time the photographer takes a photo, the photo would be transmitted to the tablet directly to a folder on the hard disk. Our software would then take over from there.
Could someone recommend software that would accomplish this? (for modern/recent cameras of course).
I came across the following, and am not sure if they would do what I want. Any guidance would be much appreciated, thanks!!
Nikon's software: Camera Control Pro 2: http://www.nikonusa.com/Nikon-Products/Product/Imaging-Software/25366/Camera-Control-Pro-2.html#tab-ProductDetail-ProductTabs-Overview
A 3rd party solution for Canon's:
Answer
There are a number of software programs that will handle tethered shooting: Lightroom 4, Phase One software's Capture One (which will also wireless transmit images to an iPad using Capture Pilot. These are full blown editing suites however.
If you just want simple transfer, what about an Eye-Fi card? They have a direct mode which will send images wirelessly to Android, iOS. Not sure about a Win7 tablet.
