1) You can use the files from the capture destination folder so there is no reason to use the CF card (be sure that you have adobe camera raw 6.5).
2) i am afraid that this is possible only with the cable release because if you turn on the self timer  bracketing mode is turned of. Turn the camera to "C" shooting mode and use bracketing and a steady tripod

Unfortunately camera can be controlled only through Phocus. You can process the files without any export as FFF files but you can also export them as DNG and then process them on photoshop but photoshop has no accurate lens and distortion correction and the quality of the output file is inferior compared to Phocus.

After the images are captured they should be in the raw format with  an fff extension. You can export these to LR or photoshop. Normally I use Phocus as it provides better results for initial work. Then I move to CS5 for final stuff. Hope that helps. I am using standard settings in Phocus 2.6.5 Regards Martin
When tethered you can set Phocus to auto export files in different formats to other directories
