Importing from camera - Dulcie1228 - 2016-07-31

The importer in LRT isn't seeing my camera chip ... Nikon D5500. Any advice?  Thanks.

The importer will only detect an SD Card, if its mounted as volume. Some cameras get connected as Multimedia device, it cannot see then then. Just use a dedicated SD Card reader: it's usually faster, more reliable and better for the IO Port of your camera too.

I'm trying to import from 5d3 to LRT same way I do in LR. LRT doesn't see my camera, I have a CF card. Do I have to use a SD card to import into LRT?

Any device must be mounted as USB-drive, not as Media device. This might be reason, if LRTimelapse doesn't see the device.
In any case I recommend using a Card-Reader to bring images to the computer. It's much faster and saves the USB port of the camera from wearing out. Additionally it doesn't drain the camera battery.
