Quickstart
Go from an empty room to a live, paying photobooth in about twenty minutes. This guide walks an operator through the full first-event setup — bridge, camera, printer, template, payments, and go-live.
Have your camera, printer, and a laptop on the same Wi-Fi before you start. You'll also want a DizzBooth account — start a free trial if you don't have one yet.
1 · Install DizzStation Bridge
The Bridge is a small desktop app that connects your camera and printer to the DizzBooth cloud. Download it, sign in, and it registers your booth automatically over your local network.
$ dizzstation status ✓ bridge online ws://booth.local:7420 ✓ camera Canon EOS R50 (EDSDK) ✓ printer DNP DS620A (idle) → paired to Grand Ballroom · Booth 01
The Bridge auto-discovers hardware via mDNS — no manual IP addresses on event day.
2 · Pair a camera
Connect a supported camera by USB. Canon bodies use the native EDSDK for sub-500ms live-view capture; Nikon, Sony, and Fujifilm are supported alongside webcam and HDMI capture as a universal fallback.
| Brand | Interface | Live view |
|---|---|---|
| Canon | EDSDK | Native |
| Nikon / Sony | gPhoto2 / SDK | Supported |
| Webcam / HDMI | UVC | Fallback |
3 · Pair a printer
Certified dye-sub support for HiTi, DNP, Epson, and Mitsubishi. Set your media size (4×6, 6×8) and cut mode (single, 2-up split), then run a test print from the dashboard before doors open.
4 · Build a template & go live
Open Template Studio, drag in your photo slots, drop your logo and overlay, and publish. Enable QRIS in payment settings, price the session, and flip the booth to live. Guests can now tap, pay, capture, print, and share.
That's it — your booth is live. Watch sessions and revenue update in real time from the dashboard while the event runs.
