It looks as though LR4 won't recognize the new Canon 1D x for tethered shooting. does anyone know of a work around for this? does anyone know when this feature will be added to LR4?

Adobe doesn’t pre-announce support for things, and the standard answer is that they are still waiting for Canon to release their software-development-kit that supports the newer Canon cameras, so Adobe can use it to attach to them. As you can see the 1Dx shows no SDK in the Drivers and Software area:
while something like the older 5D Mark II does list an SDK being available:
Canon seems to have last released an SDK in April 2011, so any cameras newer than that aren’t supported for image capture unless they are very similar to ones that are supported and might work. The 1Dx is fairly new so wouldn’t be supported by Canon and therefore no Adobe, either, yet.
Nikon has already released their SDK for the new Nikon D800 and Capture One supports it, already, but Adobe still doesn’t so it won’t necessarily be released immediately even when Canon does release their SDK.
Someone, perhaps from Canon, just posted a link that says there is an SDK that supports the 1Dx so perhaps Adobe could have it in the next release:

SDK software has been here for months it was there 04 jun 2012

capture one alredy have tethered to 5d mark III and 1dx
why so slow fro adobe side.
???????????????????????????
i use the EOS utility to send pictures from the camera to a folder that can be "watched" by LR. as a result, i can display each of the pictures that i take with the 1dx in LR as i take the shot. ultimately, however, i would like to simply use the tethered shooting option in LR4 as i do with my 1d mk4.

i've been told that adobe will add the 1dx in the next iteration of an update.
