DSLR Photo straight to computer (MacBook Pro)?
I saw a video on Digital Rev TV of Eric Wong during the Pro Photographer, Cheap Camera challenge, and in the beginning when he snaps the picture, it shows up on his mac. I'm wondering can that only be done on a HasselBlad, or can I do it with a D7000? Because seeing a picture in full resolution compared to a tiny LCD screen helps in some cases. If I can do it with a Nikon, what Equipment would I need to use, or softoware?
It's called tethering. You can do it in Lightroom or Aperture. Or other programs but those are the two that come to mind. Your camera SHOULD be supported by either program but not all cameras are. If it is supported, all you need is the USB cable and the software.
The D7000 supports HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia Interface), that enables direct connection to a High-Definition TV for viewing of still images and movies. Type C connector (mini size) is employed and also HDMI-CEC (Consumer Electronics Control) is supported for operation of the D7000 using TV remote control.
Optional Cable: Requires optional HDMI connection cable [HDMI Type A ↔ Type C (mini size)] for playback.
