Re: How to shoot Canon 5D tethered?
I just started doing this with my 5D. Easiest way is to use DPP and EOS Utility, should have come with your camera. Once you have them in your laptop, plug in the camera to your usb port. Make sure you have the output, in the camera menu, set to PC and not printer. There are preferences in DPP for you to set, that I'm not going to get into right now. Fire up your laptop, start DPP, turn on your camera, start the EOS Utility from the tools menu in DPP. It should recognize your camera. You won't see anything show up until you take the first shot, then it should start showing your shots as you take them. If you start EOS Utility while the camera is turned on, it may fail to find the camera, in that instance, shut the camera off and then back on, it should show up then. You will also need to set up a dedicated file in your computer to shoot to.
