Faster review and better organization
Smart Shooter 6 makes it easier to manage both small shoots and large image volumes. Rate images as you shoot and save ratings to EXIF data so your selections can carry over into compatible image editing software.
An enhanced Filmstrip, faster thumbnail handling, and improved filtering and sorting help you navigate your images. Persistent sessions, improved preview tools, and better image transfer management create a more cohesive workflow. You can also import existing images from your camera’s memory card and keep them alongside your tethered captures.
Customize your workspace with MyWorkspace
Position and dock the software’s panels to suit your needs and save your personal layout. MyWorkspace lets you adapt the interface to the way you work, whether your focus is on camera control, image review, or multi-camera photography.
QR codes and barcodes for high-volume photography
Smart Shooter 6 can read QR codes and barcodes through the camera lens or via a separate scanner. The information can be saved to image filenames and/or metadata, making identification and organization easier for product, catalog, and other high-volume photography.
Save to multiple locations with SmartSave
With SmartSave, images can be saved to multiple locations simultaneously, such as the camera’s memory card, your computer, and cloud storage. This gives you flexible control over image storage and backup during your shoot.
Multiple cameras – one centralized overview
The new Multi-Camera Dashboard provides a centralized overview of connected cameras and simplifies shooting from multiple angles. The feature is suitable for product photography, 3D modeling, book scanning, catalog production, and digitization projects.
The standard license supports one camera at a time. You can switch between different compatible camera models without purchasing extra licenses. However, capturing and transferring images from multiple cameras simultaneously requires one add-on license per additional camera. For example, synchronized capture with four cameras requires the standard license and three additional camera licenses. A license can be expanded to support up to ten cameras simultaneously.
Expanded camera support
Smart Shooter 6 offers expanded support for newer cameras from Canon, Nikon, Sony, and Fujifilm. Supported models include the Canon EOS R1 and EOS R5 Mark II, Nikon Z6 III, Sony Alpha 1 II and Alpha 9 III, and Fujifilm X-H2S. Check the compatibility list for your specific camera model before purchasing.
Optional API connectivity
For customized workflows and integration with larger production systems, API Connection is available as a separate add-on. API connectivity is not included in the standard license.
