Great video, I think this is something ive been looking for. I just want to use my phone as a monitor and see all the settings.
Thanks, yes it can be helpful to have a bigger screen to monitor settings and focus in an easy way :-)
It's good to use an HDMI to micro HDMI coiled cable because it looks more tidy for cable management. Good video sharing here.
Thanks, I agree with you - the cable should be coiled for better cable management, but I did not have one at that time unfortunately :-)
Thanks for sharing. I use this solution sometimes but I will add, you can get capture cards with usb c pig tails eliminating the need for the additional usb c extension cable. Good video. 👍🏼
Thanks for watching:) Yes I have been looking for that capture card with the built in usb c, it would be a better solution than my "clumsy" cable management. But the principal was more important in the video :-)
Thanks for your response 🙏🙏
You`re welcome - and thanks for watching :-)
Is it possible to go live with this setup?
Yes, you should be able to do live streaming using this setup. But It`s probably vice to buy the pro version of the USB Camera app with slightly more advanced settings. And not at least, you will get rid of the adds that pops up in the free version when you are online.
What about the multi-function shoe adapter for smartphone link (Canon AD-P1)?
I`m not that familiar with the device, looks interesting though :)
