Recommendations and limitations 
All users 
• When you have disconnected a camera do not reconnect a camera until the Camera tool 
status changes to "No Camera Attached".  
DSLR users 
• For Canon 5D, 20D and 350D/Rebel XT: Set the camera’s communication setting to PC 
connection or Normal to enable remote capture. Do not use the Print/PTP or PTP setting. 
• Connecting some Canon cameras to the computer after launching Capture One might result 
in tethered capture being unavailable. If you experience this, connect the camera to the 
computer prior to launching Capture One. 
Back users 
• For tethered shooting with Phase One Digital Backs make sure that your system can either 
supply at least 10W power via Firewire (more than most laptops can supply) or make sure 
to activate the “Force Battery” setting on the back. Use the 4.5m Phase One Firewire cable. 
• For tethered shooting with Leaf and Mamiya DM digital backs make sure that your system 
can supply at least 12W power via Firewire (more than most laptops can supply). Use a 
Leaf or Mamiya Firewire cable. 
• Do not open the shutter on the camera prior to opening the Live View window. Doing so 
will generate errors on the digital back after closing the Live View window. The 
recommended procedure for using Live View is to first open the Live View window, then 
open the shutter on the camera, use Live View as desired, when done, close the shutter on 
the camera, and close the Live View window. 
• For Leaf Backs and Mamiya DM systems, the camera body must be selected in preferences 
before connecting the back. 
• For Leaf Backs and Mamiya DM systems, in the case of a communication error during 
firmware upload, please wait 10 minutes before disconnecting the FireWire cable. 
• Leaf Aptus II 8 only works with black and white live view. 
• Focus controls for iXR and iXA cameras are only supported by IQ and Credo backs.

Known issues 
Below you will find a list of known issues for Capture One 7.0 at the time of shipping. 
All users 
• Browsing folders containing unsupported image files may affect application performance. 
• Previews from earlier versions of Capture One may be updated. In some cases, this can 
affect the application performance the first time images are viewed in this version of 
Capture One. 
• Using e.g. a US laptop keyboard it might be preferable to change some of the standard 
keyboard shortcuts. 
Mac users 
• Certain versions (e.g. 2.4) of the Logitech Control Center may conflict with the tethered 
capture functionality of Capture One. We strongly recommend upgrading to the latest 
version of the Logitech Control Center. 
• It is only possible to show the Capture One toolbar in “Icon Only” mode.! 
• Continuous tethered capturing may become unstable on Mac OS X 10.7 or 10.8 during 
continued use. Restarting Capture One periodically is recommended as a possible 
workaround. 
• Canon cameras do not connect (tethered) on 10.7.5 and 10.8. 
• Hardware acceleration via OpenCL not supported on 10.8. 
Windows users 
• Windows drivers are required for some older models of Canon DSLR cameras to be able to 
shoot tethered. These drivers are available from Canon’s web site.  
• If you have Bonjour 2.0.3 installed you may experience problems with Capture Pilot. 
Bonjour 2.0.2 (shipping with Capture One 6.) and 2.0.4 (shipped with iTunes) have been 
tested to work with Capture Pilot. To check the version number of Bonjour, go to 'Control 
Panel' and select 'Programs and Features' ('Add/Remove Programs' on WinXP). 
• Nikon D80 and Nikon D200 will not tether on Windows 7.
