Nikon Camera Control Pro 2 does NOT work with El Capitan

We’re delighted to announce the release of Reikan FoCal 2.0 Maintenance Release 2 (MR2) for Mac. This release improves Mac OS X 10.11 (El Capitan) support, specifically for Nikon D800, D810 and D7100 cameras. This release builds upon earlier 2.0 releases, dedicated blog entries below: Reikan FoCal 2.0 Final Released! Download Apple Mac OS X El Capitan for Mac to oS X El Capitan features new options for managing windows, smarter Spotlight search, app enhancements, and faster performance.

After updating the 27' iMac in my shooting studio to El Capitan (OS 10.11), the Nikon Camera Control Pro 2 program cannot connect to my Nikon D800 camera. It has always worked before - and El Capitan killed it. i rely on shooting tethered to the camera so that clients can see the images as we shoot.

Nikon says that they will examine the El Capitan program ..... Of course, Nikon has had access to El Capitan for months ---- and they failed to get ready for the new OS from Mac ...... All too typical for the incompetent software engineers at Nikon ......

We’re delighted to announce the release of Reikan FoCal 2.0 Maintenance Release 1 (MR1) for Windows and Mac. This release adds Mac OS X 10.11 (El Capitan) support as well as fixing several other bugs.

This release builds upon the earlier 2.0 release, dedicated blog entry below:

**Canon cameras on El Capitan

There was an issue with FoCal 2.0 MR1 (FoCal 2.0.6) meaning that Canon cameras would report an Error 97 when attempting to connect. This has been resolved in FoCal 2.0 MR1.5 (FoCal 2.0.7) which you can see information about here.

Known Issues

There is an outstanding problem with Nikon D7100 connection on Mac OS X 10.11 (El Capitan). If you wish to calibrate Nikon D7100 it is not possible with Mac OS X 10.11 (El Capitan). This is part of the issue with the changes to Apple’s latest operating system and it is something we are still investigating. We believe all other Canon and Nikon cameras will work on Mac OS X 10.11 (El Capitan) including Nikon D7000 and D7200.

Fixes and Improvements

The following is a list of the changes since the release of FoCal 2.0:

Updates in this release:

• FIX: Adds support for Nikon tethering on OS X 10.11 (El Capitan)
• FIX: Fix an issue that could stop some older Nikon cameras working (specifically D300, D300s, D700, D3, D3S and D3X)
