After updating LRC v 15.5, I am unable to control or change camera settings on my camera when shooting tethered. The camera will not allow me to change apertures, shutter speed, ISO, focus points etc.

When i disconnect tethering, it works fine.

I am using Canon R5, Macbook Pro, Sequoia 15.7.1

    Hey, ​@Mandytaxi. Welcome to the Lightroom Community. I've merged your posts together.

     

    Lightroom Classic now supports native tethering for Canon cameras with a new native (PTP-based) tethering pipeline. For this behavior, go to Lightroom Classic > Preferences > General > Tether Options, toggle between Use Canon SDK & restart the Camera & Lightroom Classic, and see how it goes.

     

    Thanks!
