Can I switch off recording images on the PC when using EOS utility?

[Pigeonhill]

I wish to control my 5DIII via the EOS utility, but I do not wish to download images to my PC, just record on the camera's card. Does anyone know if you can do this?

Hi Pigeonhill!

Thanks for posting.

When the camera is tethered to a computer with EOS Utility, each image is downloaded to the computer's hard drive.  You can choose to also save images to the card, but the images cannot only be saved to the card and not the hard drive.

Having read the manual that was my conclusion. May I just Canon revisits EU. With the new Windows 8 tablets, I have an 8in one, photographers can control their DSLRs in the field. I would like to suggest Canon tweaks EU to make it an in field controller, ie accessing all camera functions.

Cheers
