Tethering with Aperture 2 and a Canon Digital Rebel XT?

Question

I basically want to know how to set my camera up to work with my Rebel XT so I can take pictures and immediately have them show up on the screen. I am running Aperture 2 for Mac and it claims it can be done. Any suggestions?

Answer 1

You will need to install the software and the driver that came with your camera.

You will also need to configure the software so the files (RAW files, I assume) will be saved at a particular folder--** and ** you have to set Aperture so it will know when the files appear.  Because all the Canon software does is save the files to a folder.

Not as easy as it sounds I am afraid. There is a way to do it with Adobe Lightroom but unfortunately you're not using that program.
