It’s also worth noting that if you plan on capturing media directly to your PC, you still need a memory card in the GH5. Of course, in case of data errors, it’s always best to save for both.

Here, you can change most creative parameters on the camera. At first, you’ll see the tether remote control panel. With the camera connected to your PC, and turned on, you can finally open the tether software. I highly recommend TetherPro USB 3.0 cable. However, it’s only one meter long, so it might be impractical for real-world tethering. The GH5 comes with a USB-C to USB-3.0 cable that you can use for the software. With the GH5 set up, it’s time to get to it. Alternatively, if you don’t have a card reader and usually transfer media via USB, you can choose Select on Connection, which brings up this menu whenever you connect to a PC.
