How to Start Tethered Shooting on Evoto iPad

1. Open Evoto on your iPad.
2. Tap the camera icon on the toolbar located on the right side of the screen.

3. Evoto will enter the Tethered Shooting interface and automatically begin detecting compatible cameras.

Camera Detection Display

Once cameras are detected, the camera list will display as follows:

• Single Wireless Camera: The wireless camera signal will show as Connected, along with the camera model information and an option to Disconnect on the right side.
  

• Multiple Cameras: Both Connected (e.g., a connected Nikon Z8 with a Disconnect button) and Not Connected cameras (with a Connect button) will be displayed.
  

• Mixed Connections: If both wired and wireless connections are available, the camera list will display the detected camera models with distinct icons differentiating the connection types.
  

Once a camera is successfully connected, the page will display primary image capture and shooting functions. After taking a photo, the interface will also show system storage and the remaining image count.

Pre-Capture Settings

Before starting your tethered session, you can configure several settings to optimize your workflow.

Capture Effect

Choose how effects are applied to newly captured images:

• Sync with Previous: Applies the same features and settings that were used on the previously captured image to the current one.
• Presets: Select a specific preset to be automatically applied to the current image upon capture.
  

Preview Settings

Control how image previews are displayed after each capture:

• Show Newest Capture Photo (Default): The preview automatically switches to the most recently captured image.
• Keep Current Selection: The preview remains on the currently selected photo and will not change when new photos are captured.
  

Import Settings: Format Filtering

Wireless tethered shooting supports filtering by image format during import:

• Available Options:
  • JPEG & RAW
  • JPEG only
  • RAW only

Note: If your camera is set to capture only JPEG or only RAW, the filter options in Evoto will be disabled accordingly to match your camera’s settings.

File Naming Options

You have five flexible ways to name your original captured files:

Format	Description
Custom Filename – Sequence	Adds a sequential number to a custom prefix. e.g., Evoto_001, Evoto_002
Custom Filename – Original Filename	Custom prefix + original file name e.g., MyShoot_IMG_1234.JPG
Capture Date – Sequence	Uses the capture date followed by a sequential number. e.g., 20240506_001, 20240506_002
Capture Date – Original Filename	Includes date + original name e.g., 20240506_IMG_1234.JPG
Original Filename (default)	Uses name generated directly by the camera e.g., IMG_1234.JPG

Date Format Options

When selecting a format that includes a date, you can choose the corresponding display format. Use Y for year, M for month, and D for day (e.g., YYYYMMDD would display as 20241016).

Character Restrictions for Filenames

You cannot use the following symbols when naming pictures: ; : ^ * < > ? |

If these listed symbols are used, a red warning will appear, and the invalid characters will be removed automatically to ensure proper file naming.
