Pentax: Give us tethering! petition

VoiceOfReason · 02-15-2013, 10:02 PM - **4 Likes**

Since Pentax said that if they get enough feedback from people wanting tethering they will look into it I figure we may as well have a petition here, so here goes.

Pentax, please give us tethering support!

That's got my vote

usrbrv8 · 02-15-2013, 11:09 PM

Another vote for tethering.

**Bruce Clark** · 02-15-2013, 11:23 PM

Sounds good to me. I have heard a few people who went to Canon for this very reason.

altopiet · 02-15-2013, 11:38 PM

Another yes vote.

SpartanD63 · 02-16-2013, 12:17 AM

I'd love to have that feature. Add another vote to the list.

T-E-T-H-E-R-I-N-G please or you will LOSE a 30 year long customer to Nikon or Canon this year.

I don't even know what tethering is. What have I been missing out on all my life?

Control, preview and adjust via cable or wifi on your pc, laptop or tablet. Pentaxians will never see products like Cameramator unless Pentax offers this support! CameraMator: Wireless Tethered Photography by Usman Rashid — Kickstarter

+1
And wireless/wired for sure

Sandy Hancock · 02-16-2013, 01:07 AM

OK. I can see this would be useful for pros, and that is a market Pentax should be aiming to appease if they want to play with the big boys.
I can't imagine it being anything I would want, but that may reflect my lack of imagination.

Kunzite · 02-16-2013, 02:04 AM

Another vote.
Releasing the specs or an SDK is OK, too (I might even make time to develop an application, a Remote Assistant-level program is not difficult to do).

**ak_kiwi** · 02-16-2013, 02:10 AM

Ok Pentax, I know you were just having us on when you said you hadn't been asked for it. ha ha very funny

But to be quite clear - YES WE WANT IT!

Thankyou

**savoche** · 02-16-2013, 02:48 AM

Want it even more now that I have a tablet (and a big screen phone). So: yes, please give us tethering.
