Are you wanting to operate two cameras at the same time, or are you asking if CC Pro will operate two diffrent cameras?

If you are wanting to operate two cameras at same time, I don't think it will do that.

Trying to operate 2 cameras at the same time on the same computer, with multiple printers hooked up. I want to shoot directly to laptop to make it faster to print (without exchanging memory cards all of the time). I have 300 portraits to shoot each day of a 3.5 day mission and all portraits will be printed in real time. Just trying to find the quickest way with as little equipment as possible. it's looking like I'll be going with 2 computers though, each with a printer hooked up to it.
Thanks for the reply. I was able to test camera control last night. Looks pretty dang cool. It should be easy for the 2 team members I am training. I just hate the idea of exchanging memory cards back and forth.

CC Pro works great teathered to the camera, I have used it before. Just not to the extent you are trying too. It will take the images straight to laptop and bypass the CF card step. I am not sure about how to go about the straight to printer part. I have read an article about Lightroom being able to take the pics straight from CC Pro, this might be a way to go straight to printer since it does have a print function.

Yeah, my manual CF card process involved using Lightroom, but since finding and testing CCPro, I found it can launch it's own viewer after the capture process. I'll just do a command-print direct from there and get the printing process started.

Thanks for the Lightroom lead though, I definitely want to track down that article, because I can use that for the less chaotic and normal portrait sessions. I've always wanted to give clients a real time view and without having to use my CF cards.

Thanks again. off to church.
