Jul 25, 2017 I currently have Lightroom 5, and had upgraded to 5.71. Recently had to reload my computer; I was able to reload Lightroom 5 from my disk; however, when I go onto the Adobe site to upgrade to 5.71 I find myself in a loop with no way to get to a download link for the upgrade. Not at all interested. Lightroom 5.7.1 was the last version of the Lightroom 5.x series. For support with newer cameras on Lightroom 5.x, you would need to use the free Adobe DNG Converter to convert your Nikon NEF files to DNG which can be read by older versions of Lightroom and Adobe Camera Raw.
The current versions of Lightroom Classic and Lightroom 6 support tethered capture for the cameras listed in this document on currently supported operating systems.
Note:
Looking for information pertaining to older versions of Lightroom? See Legacy tethered camera support.
To search for a camera model, press Ctrl+F (Windows) or Command+F (macOS). Or filter the list by camera manufacturer:
For instructions on using tethered capture in Lightroom, see Import photos from a tethered camera. If you're having problems using tethered capture with a supported camera, see Troubleshoot tethered capture in Lightroom.

For all Nikon cameras:
Download Adobe Lightroom 5.7 Update
- Tethering with the following models may be unreliable on Mac OS when burst shooting: D300, D300S, D700, D3, D3S, D3X, D90, D5000, D7000, D5100, D7200
- If you trigger the shutter with the tether bar capture button, the image must finish downloading before another photo can be captured. Triggering a capture with the shutter release button on the camera does not have this limitation.
- Images do not save to the compact flash card. They are downloaded only to the computer.
- If you're using Lightroom Classic version 8.1 or earlier, only one Nikon camera can be attached at a time for tether. In Lightroom Classic version 8.2 (February 2019 release), support for tethering multiple Nikon cameras has been provided.
For all other camera models that are not listed in this page, contact the camera manufacturer to get information about tethering support in Lightroom Classic.
The following Canon camera models support Live View in Lightroom Classic:
