Which cameras and editing tools work with SpotMyPhotos

Which cameras support real-time roaming delivery, which upload after capture, and which editing tools integrate with SpotMyPhotos.

SpotMyPhotos is built to fit your gear, not replace it. Nearly any modern professional DSLR or mirrorless camera works for getting photos into the platform. What changes by camera is how fast the photos can flow, so here is the simple version.

Real-time roaming delivery

For live, roaming delivery where a photographer walks the floor and photos reach guests in seconds, the camera streams through the SpotMyPhotos app on a tethered phone. Real-time roaming is supported for Canon, Nikon, and Sony.

Upload after capture

Cameras that are not supported for real-time roaming, including Fujifilm, Panasonic Lumix, Olympus, and the DJI Pocket 3, still work with SpotMyPhotos. Their photos come in by drag-and-drop web upload after capture, or through a wired laptop or Windows Surface station for near-real-time delivery. So you are never locked out; the camera just determines whether delivery is instant or shortly after.

Stationary and headshot setups

For a fixed station such as a headshot booth or a step-and-repeat, a camera tethered to a laptop running the SpotMyPhotos uploader is usually the smoothest path.

Editing tools

If you edit before delivering, SpotMyPhotos watches a folder that the SpotMyPhotos Uploader monitors, so your edited selects flow in automatically. It works alongside Lightroom, Capture One, Evoto, Imagen, and AfterShoot. Edit in your own tools, drop the finals in the watched folder, and SpotMyPhotos re-matches and delivers them.

A note on phones

The iPhone app is the most capable for real-time streaming and on-device features. The Android app is a lighter relay and uploader. If you are only uploading by SD card or laptop after the shoot, you do not need a phone at all.
