@Erick, thanks for the update. The whole jpg/raw controls are very broken and I’ll be fixing that shortly.

@RJ, rotation is hard; I may not be able to do that.

@Joe, I believe that with Elements you get Adobe Bridge. Why not use that to view? It is far superior to any viewer I can code; it is even faster than Lightroom in this situation as no “import” is required, merely display.

what I would like to possibly see in the next beta version is the rotation of images according to the way the camera body was held as in vertical or horizontal

I’m still having issues with 5.1 and Win 7 (64). Are you folks using a program for viewing the pictures besides the Camera Control program? I only have Photoshop Elements and I don’t think I can view the tethered pics with it like folks that use Lightroom.

I tried previous versions just today and was getting errors, then I came across the 5.1 beta and it works great with my D300 and Vista 64 bit….I haven’t tried all the features of the beta but so far no errors that I got from previous versions. Only thing is it did not install to my programs list, once unzipped…I just clicked on “Camera Control” which was a .hta file extension and it opened up the beta 5.1 for use…overall great development, although I find the transfer of the image a bit slow for viewing

I can confirm that tethering works with a D300s on Win 7 (64bit). I had the errors you mentioned before with the non beta version. Will be trying out the timelapse over the next few days so will let you know if there are issues. Thanks for the great software.

Oh! and I can confirm that a D50 works in Windows 7. (tried timelapsing, not sure about tethering).

Before I saw this post i went fiddling in the .hta and a quick fix was simply to set the default format to RAW. That did it.

Rodney, thanks for the curious solution. It is strange, is it not, one would imagine that either the USB cable works, or does not work. Yet there seems to be an intermediate stage of ‘works enough to recognise, but not good enough to work fully’.

Poor quality cables can also cause this problem. Even a cable that is good enough to download images ordinarily, may not be good enough for tethering.

Problem solved! Once I plugged the USB cable into a powered USB hub instead of directly into the computer it worked.
Great program.

I’m running Win 7 64 bit. When I ran the 5.1 beta it correctly showed I was using a D200 but then displayed an error as follows:
Line 555 Char 2 Error Name not found Code O.
If I then continued and tried to browse to the folder I got the following error. Line 913 Char 2 Error Object required ‘fso’
