Question

tether live view longer than 10 minutes

Is it possible to run the tether live view for more than 10 minutes without any activity?

The camera setting is set to infinity and works perfectly without tether.

My camera ist the Nikon D7100 and I work with the Lightroom Classic 5.2.

Thanks for your help.

I read your first post again and see "live view".

The D7200 is not listed as a model that supports 'Live View' with Lightroom-Classic.

"The following Nikon camera models support Live View in Lightroom Classic:

Nikon D500 Nikon D610 Nikon D750 Nikon D850 Nikon Z6 Nikon Z7"
I can only suggest you work through the suggestions in the 'Trouble-shoot' link-

I like the last suggestion 14) "..with another application."

For example, this one- (take care to avoid the "Download" advertisements!)

Regards. My System: Windows-11, Lightroom-Classic 15.3, Photoshop 27.5, ACR 18.3, Lightroom 9.3, Lr-iOS 10.4.0, Bridge 16.0.3 .

It's definitely a camera issue. I've tried 2 other programs and it's always the same.

Thank you anyway.

Yes. Unless some part of the system is shutting down or 'sleeping', then you may get a disconnect.

I have tethered a D750 for several hours (photo booth at a wedding) with no problems for pauses in use.

The camera setting is set to infinity and works perfectly without tether.

"infinity" ?? This would be a 'Focus' setting I presume? Not related to tethering.

My camera ist the Nikon D7100 and I work with the Lightroom Classic 5.2.

5.2 ?? That is the 'minimum' version (Lightroom perpetual) that will tether the D7100. What Lr-Classic version are your using now?

Thanks for your answer.

Sorry, it's the Lr-Classic 11.2.

The system will not shut down or sleep. It also happens when I'm working at the same time.
