How it works for Fujifilm X-T5 → ShootProof

Your phone sits between the camera and ShootProof: no laptop, no card reader.

Step 1
Fujifilm X-T5
Connect it to your phone with a USB-C data cable, then shoot as normal.
Step 2
Your phone
CloudTether copies each full-resolution photo off the camera seconds after the shutter and uploads it once.
Step 3
ShootProof
Every shot lands in ShootProof as a JPEG while you keep shooting — and in any other destination on the shoot.

How to live-upload Fujifilm X-T5 photos to ShootProof

Connect your Fujifilm X-T5 to your phone and every shot lands in ShootProof live as you shoot. Here's the full setup, start to finish:

1
Connect your Fujifilm X-T5
Connect over USB-C with the camera set to USB tether/PC shoot for a reliable link. Fujifilm Wi-Fi tethering is experimental in CloudTether — use a USB cable for paid work.
2
Connect ShootProof
Connects via ShootProof OAuth. Pick where photos should land — frames stream straight into the ShootProof event (or an album in it) you pick, so clients can proof and order before you've packed up.
3
Shoot as normal
Every frame your Fujifilm X-T5 captures is detected and downloaded at full resolution while you keep shooting. ShootProof receives the JPEGs — RAW files are skipped for it, so shoot RAW+JPEG.
4
Photos deliver to ShootProof
Each photo uploads from your phone once and lands in ShootProof live, seconds after the shutter — and fans out to any other destinations on the session too.

ShootProof in the CloudTether app

Connect ShootProof once, then every shoot from your Fujifilm X-T5 can deliver to it.

CloudTether Deliver tab with ShootProof under Add more, ready to connect — Tap ShootProof in the Deliver tab to connect it.

CloudTether New shoot screen: name the shoot, then tick the services under Deliver to — ShootProof appears here once it's connected — Start a shoot and tick ShootProof under “Deliver to”.

Connecting the Fujifilm X-T5

The X-T5 tethers over USB-C once two settings are right: Network/USB setting menu → CONNECTION MODE → USB TETHER SHOOTING AUTO, and USB POWER SUPPLY/COMM SETTING → AUTO (or POWER SUPPLY OFF/COMM ON). Then plug a data cable into a USB-C phone or iPad, or Apple's camera adapter on a Lightning iPhone. Fujifilm bodies use CloudTether's standard PTP code, verified over USB on an X-T3.

Check how the camera saves while tethered: some Fujifilm bodies send shots over the cable instead of writing them to the card in tether mode. Take a test shot and look at the card before you rely on it as your backup. Fujifilm Wi-Fi tethering is experimental in CloudTether, so use the cable for paid work.

Many X-T5 owners shoot for the film-simulation JPEGs, which are exactly what galleries and clients want, with the RAF RAW kept for later edits. Rated send isn't available over Fujifilm tethering, so every frame is sent; JPEG only keeps uploads light.

RAF files still take far longer to upload than JPEGs over mobile data, so the usual X-T5 set-up is RAW+JPEG with the JPEGs delivered live and the RAF kept for later. If the card isn't recording while tethered, add a storage destination so you still have two copies of every frame.

Getting the most out of ShootProof

ShootProof receives JPEGs; RAW files and video are marked Skipped rather than failed, so shoot RAW+JPEG. Create the event in ShootProof before you start: CloudTether lists your events newest first and lets you pick the event itself or one album inside it. Each shoot has one ShootProof target, so for a wedding you might point the getting-ready shoot at one album and start a second shoot for the ceremony.

Proofing galleries don't need full-size files. Web (2048 px) or Large (4096 px) in the shoot's Delivery resolution loads quickly on a client's phone and stays inside ShootProof's per-file size limit; keep Original if clients will order big prints. The event's own settings — access, favourites, price sheet — apply to every photo CloudTether adds.

A typical day: create the event the night before, add albums for the parts of the day, and share the event link once the first frames are in. Because CloudTether adds photos the way a manual upload would, favourites, downloads and the price sheet work as normal — you don't change how you run ShootProof, only when the photos arrive.

Add Dropbox, Google Drive or an SFTP server to the same shoot to get the RAW off-site too.
A delivery watermark can be set in the shoot's settings on the web dashboard.
Two photographers can point their own phones at the same event.

A typical Fujifilm X-T5 to ShootProof workflow

Create the ShootProof event, then set the X-T5 to USB TETHER SHOOTING AUTO and plug in over USB-C.
Shoot RAW+JPEG with JPEG only on — the film-simulation JPEGs go to ShootProof and the RAF files stay with you.
Use Large (4096 px) delivery for proofing, and confirm the card is recording with a test shot.

Fujifilm X-T5 to ShootProof: what to know

The Fujifilm X-T5 is a aps-c body — wedding, street and travel shooters who love the film look. CloudTether pulls each frame off it the moment you shoot and delivers it to ShootProof: the JPEGs (ShootProof doesn't take RAF RAW files, so shoot RAW+JPEG).

RAF files are far larger than JPEGs, so if your ShootProof recipients only need to view or pick images, deliver JPEG for the fastest turnaround and keep the RAF originals on the card or in a second destination.

ShootProof gets JPEGs (RAW and video are skipped), into the event or album you pick — shoot RAW+JPEG.

Does ShootProof show the X-T5's film simulations?

Yes. ShootProof receives the camera's JPEGs, so the film simulation you shot with is what the client sees.

Why aren't my X-T5 RAF files in ShootProof?

ShootProof takes JPEGs only; RAF files are marked Skipped. Shoot RAW+JPEG and add Dropbox or Google Drive for the RAW.

Yes. One phone can tether two cameras into one shoot, or a second photographer can point their own phone at the same event. Each shoot has one ShootProof target — the event itself or one album in it.
