I did use it once, but it was painfully slow! John Coyle Brisbane, Australia

Hello all! I was considering a possibility of tethered shooting with a Pentax DSLR. >From what I found, it looks like there are two options available: 1) *istD/*istDS with the Pentax Remote Assistant and 2) PK_Tether - http://www.pktether.com/ (read this brief review: http://www.gyes.eu/photo/reviews_tutorials/pk_tether.htm ) I saw that there was an effort to implement something into Lightroom, but I don't think that ever happened. I still have my *istDS, and so the first option might be viable with that (assuming I can dig out the software that came with it). Has anybody used any of these two programs? My two main questions are a) whether the photos can be seen on the computer screen in real time in Pentax Remote Assistant (I think, - yes...), and b) if these programs can work with the RAW formats (PEF/DNG), or require JPEG. I would appreciate ideas of other possibilities (e.g. programs, hacks, etc.) of how the photos from a P-DSLR can be displayed quickly on a computer screen (can you do that with Eye-Fi easily, without the need to open each file in a viewer program manually)?
