Lightroom won't shoot tethered when in mirror lock-up mode

Lightroom Classic tether function was finally working without issue, but after latestest update (14.1.1) will no longer fire via the tether shooting panel when camera (Nikon 850) is in mirror lock-up mode. The other functions work fine, i.e., shuutter speed, aperture, ISO.. all communicate with camera and adjust, but after first click of shutter release (via tether panel) camera just locks with "PC" on LCD.

I am having the same issue.  This has never been a problem with past versions.  I’d love to see this fixed since my workflow is now regressed

Hi @KAPscreen,

Thanks for reaching out. I understand the frustration, especially if this worked with your previous Lightroom Classic version.

Could you please share your camera model, current Lightroom Classic version, OS version, and camera firmware version?

Also, please confirm whether tethered capture works normally when Mirror Lock-Up (Mup) is disabled and only stops working when Mup is enabled.

If possible, let us know the last version of Lightroom Classic in which this workflow worked correctly for you. That will help us determine whether you’re seeing the same behavior reported here or a recent regression.

Please let me know, and I’ll be happy to investigate further.

Best,
Anshul Saini
