FujiFilm Tether Shooting Plug-in (Pro) Mac/Lightroom Catalina

[Don Barar]

Hi All,

Does anyone know if FujiFilm Tether Shooting Plug-in (Pro) Mac/Lightroom/X-T3 works in a Mac OS 10.5.x (Catalina) environment?  I saw the announcement on Fuji X Forum regarding the GFX was now working in Catalina but there was no mention of X-T3.

Fuji’s website shows Mac OS 10.15 Catalina compatible for their free X Acquire & Capture one Pro. Here’s Fuji’s link on tether compatibility:

Hi Robr:

Thank you for writing.  I review the URL you suggested.  Before I read your comments I reviewed the following URL: https://exchange.adobe.com/creativecloud.details.16759.fujifilm-tether-shooting-plug-in-pro-mac.html

The claim in this URL is that Catalina did work for both camera and PC capture--I need the PC capture functionality.  After speaking with both Adobe and FujiFilm I was told that this plug-in worked in Mac OS Catalina.  So I went ahead and purchased.  After finally getting the Lightroom Classic to recognize the plug-in I am able to only find Camera capture.  There does not appear to be a PC capture in the Mac plug-in.

I have another call into FujiFilm USA support to determine their findings.

If anyone else has thoughts on this I would appreciate your comments.

Hi All:

It turns out that the FujiFilm Tether Shooting Plug-in (Pro) Mac/Lightroom/X-T3 does work in a Mac OS 10.5.x (Catalina) environment.  After launching Lightroom, select start tether capture.  This will allow you to capture images using Lightroom.  If you want more functionality, select the FujiFilm X icon in the menu bar.  This brings up a window that allows you to change exposure parameters and many of the functions of the camera.  Works quite well.

Sincerely,

Don Barar
