Common questions

What cameras work with live capture and how are they connected?

iPhone and iPad via the BrandStudio app; mirrorless and DSLR (Sony, Canon, Nikon, Fuji) via USB tether to a Mac or iPad; HDMI capture cards for cameras without native tether. Every path lands photos in the same gallery within seconds. Choose the camera based on image quality needs, not delivery speed.

How fast does a photo go from shutter click to a guest's phone?

Usually 3–10 seconds for branded overlay, upload, and SMS. Tethered setups are fastest because the photo arrives on our processor before the photographer has put the camera down. On slow venue wifi, it can stretch to 15–30 seconds — offline sync queues and catches up if the network drops.

Does the photographer need to assign photos to guests during capture?

Not if Face Match is on — photos route to guests automatically after capture. If Sessions are on, the photographer taps the guest name once at the start of a session and every photo until they switch is tagged. For pure walk-up shoots with no sessions, Face Match handles routing on its own.

What gear do I actually need for tethered photo capture?

A mirrorless camera with a USB-C port, a USB-C cable, an iPad (or Mac) running BrandStudio, and a stand if the camera is stationary. For booth setups add continuous LED lighting. The Event Photography Equipment Checklist playbook on the site walks through our exact recommended kit.
