The greatest benefit of the importer to Sessions users, particularly for those that are time-pressured and working with a high volume of images, is the ability to automate the organization of images into sub-folders by their metadata. Note that you can only import images from a connected camera memory card if it supports the Mass storage protocol. The setting which controls that can also be found in the Preferences. When a memory card is detected in a card reader or camera, the importer may open automatically.

This will temporarily disable the tethering function until it is needed again. If your camera is a supported model and you want to connect it only to import images from it, you can deselect the relevant Provider (i.e., maker) option in the preferences. Capture One will detect and recognize a supported camera model upon connection and the Camera tool tab will be enabled to control, capture, and manage storage. However, the Import dialog is used solely for importing from external media such as memory cards, external disks, and a connected camera when that is not being used for tethered capture.Īlthough there is no difference between a tethered Session and a regular Session, the importer is not used when tethering.

Importing images into a Session involves a similar workflow to that of Catalogs.
