Olympus Explains the Improvements That Speed Up the Photo Transfer Process: Olympus Capture Ver. 1.1
Several improvements were made for the Ver. 1.1 Olympus Capture tethering software, addressing requests we received from professional photographers. Today we would like to share with you a couple of improvements that speed up the photo transfer process. First, you will be able to save direct to your PC, rather than having to save on the SD card first and then transfer the data to your PC. Second, the new File Save Priority feature allows you to adjust allocation of camera-PC data transfer capacity between file saving and camera commands. If you slide File Save Priority to the far left, file saving to your PC is 4 times faster than with the original Olympus Capture software, allowing photos to be viewed on a large PC screen immediately after the shutter is released.

Olympus Capture 1.1 is set to be released on November 26th, along with the OM-D E-M1 Ver. 4.0 and OM-D E-M5 Mark II Ver. 2.0 firmware upgrades.
