K10D and Tethering

wll · 02-17-2007, 03:37 AM

Is there a program that I can use to Tether my K10D? Pentax said they were going to upgrade their software program but I have not seen it.

Also, has anyone heard if Capture One will have tethering with the K10D.

Just looked over the Phase One website. It seems the only cameras supported for tethering are Canon. As Capture One doesn't support even K100D RAW(according to their website) it may be a while if at all.

Pentax had a program got the *istD called "Remote Assistant" which would allow full control of the camera via a computer, including firing the shutter. I have already asked pentax to update this to work with the K10D, plus include some options like changing the default file name in the camera, to avoid duplicate file names when using 2 cameras

Let's hope they come through. These would both be very helpful.

The last word on the Remote Assistant is that the K10D version should be ready in a month or two.
