Tethered Shooting Is the Single Biggest Upgrade I've Made to My Commercial Workflow

I used to call myself confident on set. Then a client walked behind me during a product shoot, squinted at the back of my Canon, and said, “Can we make the shadows a little softer?” She was looking at a two-inch LCD in harsh warehouse light. I was guessing. She was guessing. We were both pretending we could evaluate the image on a screen the size of a playing card. That was the last time I shot tethered-optional.
