Pictures straight in the mac?

[Mr. EMJAY]

Is it possible, to store the pictures trough firewire or other cable directly into the mac or pc.... seen some pros doing that, i have a 1D???

Well, should work if the camera is supported for the Mac OS (are you using "Classic" or "OS X"?). I know that the new version of Capture One Pro works with Hasselblad and Canon, so you can shoot directly into your Mac (or PC) while in a studio environment. Canon's own software is supposed to work too, but I haven't tried that one out yet.

im using OS X, but how does it work....could you explain

if you want to shoot direct to your pc via the camera and store direct to pc you will need to have a copy of a digital capture software the software supplied by cannon is ok but does not have apreview window breeze browser remote pro is the one i use best for studio portrate and macro work

[Mr. EMJAY]

solved, with Canon Remote Capture, great thing for macro and studio shooting.

[Mr. EMJAY]

In case you want to play with Capture One Pro too:

There's a pre-realease of their new version too, that might be interesting to you if the "official" version isn't doing what you want. I've seen this beast in work on a G5 and the 8 megapixles images just "flew" into the machine (in RAW) ready to be worked on.
