Transfer images to PC directly - do not store on camera

Post by tfboy »

I don't know if this is something I can do or not.

I'm using DDB 0.3.3 with LRTimelapse on my D800 where I'd like to record long sequences of files.
As the RAW file size generated on the camera is large, my 32GB SD card isn't big enough to hold all the images of a sequence.

Is it possible to use DBB in a tethered situation where the RAW (and JPG or not) are transferred directly to my PC without the need / space on an SD card?

I tried taking photos with no SD card in the camera, and it doesn't appear to want to do it.

Alternatively, if recording on the card is compulsory, is there a way I can permit overwriting of files on the SD card, or delete images on the card whilst a capture is still going on?
