This is nothing but using LiveView and sending it over to the PC. I doubt it would hurt the camera, even if it did generate too much heat.Quick question. I remember talk about sensors getting hot when running extended video. Any chance this could overheat the sensor during long video sessions? I would hate to damage my expensive DSLR for this.
Hi Fred (and @Daner), yes I was able to come across some tips in Canon's support forum. What solved it for me was: quitting the EOS utility that pops up when you first plug in the camera. Also, it was important to use a supported cable (using USB-C to USB-C provided by Canon) and also I have extra trouble with my HP where USB-C ports choose to stop working when too many peripherals -- so there were several things working against me. However, I got it to work in the end and looks nice.Turn off EOS Utilities
I run double laptops simultaneously to better monitor users and chats, so I can choose between the webcam on my MacBook Pro and my Toshiba Portégé. As such, I know which webcam does a clearly better job.
Any Mac alternatives?
(I'm looking at alternativesto, etc., but thought I'd ask before diving into the list.)
