P: Tethering support requests and information

Hi team,  waiting for a half a year since I bought Canon R6 mark 2 to be finally added to Lightroom Classic tethered cameras.. please do it as a priority. 

Since Sony's improved camera control SDK April 2023, does Adobe have a roadmap for adding Sony tethering to Lightroom Classic?

There are third party plugins for this and Capture One manages it. If the SDK is free to use, what is stopping Adobe from supporting Sony as they support Nikon and Canon tethering?

When will the R6 MII be supported for tethering in LRC?  Please allow tethering support for the Canon R6 MII. 

Thanks

1. Hi, i would like to know if it's possible to take pictures in "connected mode" with a Canon R6 Mk2 on lightroom ?  I use a Mac book pro (monterrey) with last version of lightroom and i have the last upgrade on my camera. I tried to connect my camera but it doesn't work, lightroom doesn't recognize my camera !

I have been using Photoshop for nearly 20 years and Lightroomsince version 2, and I have been shooting tethered into LRC since the feature exists. Mid last year, I upgraded from Canon EOS R6 to Canon EOS R6 Mk2, which was released in November 2022. Now it's 16 MONTHS LATER after the camera came on the market, and Adobe has not managed to add the R6Mk2 to the supported cameras list in LR Classic. Not only did my professional workflow get negatively impacted, but I also looked like an amateur in front of a client, not being able to shoot tethered with a recent camera model. There is a cumbersome way to work around it with the Canon util software and LR auto import - but WHY??  The file format is still CR3, just like the EOS R6. The Adobe agent had no idea why a significant camera model, which countless professional photographers are using was not being supported by Lightroom. Does anyone here have an answer? Do the Adobe app developers even look here to become aware of their customer's concerns? I feel not seen or heard as a longtime Adobe user and customer, and I am upset and very disappointed by Adobe for completely ignoring this issue. I enjoy all the neat new AI-powered features, but that does not excuse my not being able to tether a mainstream pro camera to Lightroom Classic.

My MacBook pro is under a year old and I am using Ventura and the latest Lightroom version.

Hi. Just tested the latest version of Lightroom CC (13.2) with my R5C, and direct tethering still isn't working. What's the problem, Adobe? The camera has been out for quite a while now. Can we make this happen, please? I'm tired of spending $24/month on Capture One. Thanks

Please make tethered capture available for the Canon EOS R8. This camera has been out for a year; why is tethering unavailable? This is crucial for me as a photographer on set with clients. 

I hope this message finds you well. I am writing to bring to your attention the absence of the Canon R6 Mark II from the supported camera list for Lightroom tethering. Despite the fact that this camera model has been in circulation for over six months, it remains unsupported by Lightroom Classic.

Given the significance of the Canon R6 Mark II in the photography community and its widespread use, it is disheartening to observe the delay in its integration into the Lightroom tethering feature. The absence of support for such a prominent device hinders the seamless workflow of many professionals who rely on both Canon's cutting-edge technology and Adobe's industry-standard software.

I understand that software development involves intricate processes, but it is imperative to address the growing user base eagerly awaiting compatibility with this camera model. Swift action in updating the supported camera list would not only enhance the user experience but also demonstrate a commitment to meeting the evolving needs of your clientele.

I appreciate your attention to this matter and sincerely hope for a prompt resolution. Your efforts in ensuring the timely inclusion of the Canon R6 Mark II in the list of supported cameras on Lightroom tethering are highly anticipated.

Thank you for your understanding and cooperation.

Lightroom classic NOT supporting tethering when connected with Canon R6 mark 2 (II), camera not in the supported camera list, how came? the Canon R6 II whent out on 2022 and until now there is no support ? be advice that "Capture One" app DO support tethering with Canon R6 mark 2 !!

Hi,

Currently I have a problem to connect my canon r8 with Lightroom classic by cable. WHen do you plan to solve this problem. I see that lightroom support R6, R7, R10 but not this one.

Thank you in advance for your quick reply.
