Shooting tethered with D850 Live view

Quincy Carter

Is it possible to shot tethered with the D850 in live view.

The D850 shoots great tethered straight to my Mac Book but id live to look at my camera back screen when doing beauty shoots.

 

Seen a few posts but all seem to be over a year old and not really discussing if it works are if a work around wads found. 

 

Please help

    Your Mac screen in Capture One will include lens correction, ca-
    mera profile, etc…

    Why then do you shoot tethered if all you want is a jpg preview of 
    your shot?

    ok let me correct.

    I'm not looking for the preview I'm looking at the back of my screen to get my composition right.

    this way I don't need to look through the small view finder.

    I find it easier when I use the face detection on the back screen hope that makes more sense

    yes if possible if I wasn't tethered I would shoot beauty by looking at the back of the LCD screen.

    Id love to do be able to do the same if possible tethered. Just want the option to use the LCD screen on my camera vs the view finder.

    For me, I just had the subject in the VF… I never use the
    live view feature anyway. Each his own! All the best.
