I have to ask - I’ve always wondered what is the software photographers use when they take a photo and it quickly updates to the software they are using?

For example, I was at an art restoration building and saw them take a photo of an artwork before restoration work and it was quickly uploaded to ? Yes, I could have asked them but I got side tracked by what they were doing.

Thank you.

    Tethered shooting, where the camera is connected to the computer (either with a cable or wirelessly) and their photo editing software just automatically imports the photo. It’s used in studios a lot.

      Yep unless we shoot events. In which case I still need a laptop station because a wedding could end up being half a TB in raw plus videos. Thank god for the super fast cards Sony has now. I can offload from that to my T7 about 256GB in 6 min. Otherwise if it’s a controlled studio I don’t have time for that

      I did it when doing a volunteer shoot at one of the local pet hospitals. The clients really got a kick out of seeing the picture on the laptop the second I took it. Made slapping “print” and collecting $20 really easy.
