GRH Posted November 27, 2022 Share Posted November 27, 2022 The only thing I can think of is they mean: take a picture and have it wirelessly appear in AP. Some cameras/phones will upload directly to iCloud for example. So far as I know, AP does not 'listen' for incoming files.

thomaso Posted November 28, 2022 Share Posted November 28, 2022 The OP might have this gimmick in mind (which appears to be stuck in its marketing phase) https://mobygeek.com/features/this-ar-app-can-paste-an-object-from-the-real-world-to-your-computer-screen-14929 ClipDrop is a reality-bending application that allows users to drop real-life objects into a desktop screen, and the AR app is taking the internet by storm, as revealed in a demo tweet posted by developer Cyril Diagne. The app was actually developed before, but it has now come a long way and is more refined. The concept of this app is to let uses take a photo of a real-life object, automatically remove the background, then convert it into a digital image. Then, users can paste the image on the desktop screen or use it in apps.

debraspicher Posted November 28, 2022 Share Posted November 28, 2022 If Affinity did do it, it'd probably only work via TWAIN drivers... and that's pretty dated... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ah the good ald days, when skilled photography relied on knowledge and a smidge of bracketing for the less daring lol! Won't be long now when you tell the 1,000,000 gigapixel 360º Dronophoto 2000 to go out and take whatever photo you desire then sit back and let the built-in AI whatever app to make it perfect, and make it the 'muriel' on you lounge wall.

No, you need to use the native app from your camera vendor for tethered shooting. As far as i know, all relevant like Canon Nikon Sony Etc offer such tools free of charge, and store the images into a selected folder. You can then just duble-click, or click and drag to Affinity Photo.

firstdefence Posted December 3, 2022 Share Posted December 3, 2022 I know on mac Tethertools can help find connectivity for your camera as well as selling hardware and software. The search by camera can show you compatible cabling and tethering software.
