Canon has released EOS Webcam Utility Beta software that allows you to use your existing DSLR, Mirrorless, or Power Shot camera as a high quality live streaming source through USB.

Due to the Coronavirus outbreak, a lot of meetings, interviews and presentations have moved online. People are using software such as Zoom and Skype in record numbers. With this increase in online live streaming, there is a real need for higher quality images and audio. Most webcams or in-built cameras on computers are pretty bad quality, but they are convenient and easy to use.

With this program, you can transfer video to your PC from a VCR, DVR, camcorder, or any other analogue video device as a high quality H.264 file. It's a easy way to digitise home video to playback on your computer, to sync with an iPad or iPhone, to edit in iMovie or Windows Live Movie Maker, or to upload to YouTube. Share your experience. Transfer video to your Mac or PC from a VCR, DVR, camcorder, or any other analogue video device as a high quality H.264 file. Elgato Video Capture’s easy-to-use software assists you through every step, from connecting an analogue video device to capturing video and choosing how you will watch and share it.

Windows Only

Now, there is a big catch. This only looks like it works with Windows. There is no option for Mac OS X. While this is a beta release, it may also be due to limitations in OS X and a similar reason to why there is no NDI Virtual Input on Mac.

So how does it work?

Software

The EOS Webcam Utility Beta software solution is easy to use. Iy only requires one single USB plug to connect the camera to a Windows operating systems computer. Once the software is downloaded and the camera is configured within a video conferencing application, the user will be ready to go.

Now, what is strange is that on Canon’s site it says that, This Software is for use in the U.S. and will not be supported outside that area.

I am not exactly sure what this means. Maybe if you are outside of the US you need to go to a different Canon site to download the software.
