Tethered operation of the K20D would work nicely if it tied directly into Live View. Unfortunatly it doesn't seem to do that. (Maybe it does it you set up Live View as your default action on the DOF preview, but I never use it that way). I think that's the way it works with higher end Canon and Nikon models, but I could be wrong about that.

FWIW, I've found tethered shooting to be relatively useless. It just slows 
things down. And the histogram is more accurate than any image. I played with 
it for a while but haven't used it in a couple of years.

 From what I've read, it's not doable.

Supposedly, Pentax removed the capability for the K7 to use remote
control software.  You can try downloading Pentax Remote Assistant and
see if you can get one of the versions to work with it (The K100DS
isn't supported, but I can get it to work with V1 of Remote Assistant.
It's flaky, but usable.

After that, you tell LR where to look for the files by going to the
File | Auto Import.

I tried using LR with the Tethered Capture option, but it doesn't
recognize my camera.  Try it out with your camera.  If LR recognizes
your camera, you should be good to go.  If not, you'll need to try
Remote Assistant and Auto Import.

Hey guys,

I have a question for you tech heads.  Has anyone worked out how to shoot 
tethered yet with Lightroom and the K7?

I KNOW that one of you hacks have worked out how to do it!

Tan.x.
