Trigger D300 from laptop... how?

[W00DY]

Hi Guys,

What do I need (software and hardware wise) to be able to trigger the D300 from the laptop and capture the images directly to the laptop?

I want to use this setup for product stuff.

(Glen - I know, I know another "how" question )

Cheers.

Nikon Camera Control Pro

See page 224ff of the manual.

There are a few options.

You can do it using Nikon's Camera Control program and combine it with Lightroom

If you're using Aperture, there's a tutorial here

Also Bibble supports tethered shooting with the D300.

Andrew, I used Camera Control Pro as suggested above for the AA battery tests, you can download a trial and be up and running in 5 minutes, virtually no learning curve.

Thanks guys, Nikon Camera Control Pro and Bridge worked a treat.

Thanks.
