I’ve been thinking about integrating my camera to sync up with Lightroom for some time.  I’d never really given it much thought until I found a real need for it.  I shoot a lot of commercial product photography and typically shoot far too many frames.  Digital has made me lazy.  I have the, “just take as many shots as it takes” mentality now and that’s a bad habit to get into.  The more images you shoot, the more time you spend editing and wasting time.

Now I have my camera transferring my images straight into Lightroom for my assistant or the art director to view on the fly.  When I hear the magic words, “that’s the one!!!”, I know I’m done and can wrap up and head to the bank.  I’ve been studying photographers that use this method for sometime, it’s well worth it!

Here’s how I did it:
Use these two links for Canon and Nikon shooters alike.

Nikon Setup
Canon Setup (with a strong reference to the above link to get Lightroom set up.)

Enjoy!!!!
