Can you use the iPhone 6 Plus as a monitor for DSLRs?

I just got my iPhone 6 Plus and it would be great to use its gorgeous display as a monitor for my Canon 5D mark III when filming on steadicam (the rear screen on the camera is generally not very useful for filming, so one needs a monitor).
Is there a way to connect the 6 Plus to my 5DIII and have what the camera sees on my iPhone screen? And are there brackets to fix the iPhone onto the flash shoe?

Nope.  As far I'm aware, the HDMI out from your camera will show content the camera has already taken, not a live view of shots.  It might show live video if you're shooting a video, but I think you want to use the camera screen as the LCD for photographs, right?  You download pictures to your iPhone via the Camera Connection kit and your memory card.  You can't connect a camera via chord to see what the camera sees.  There would be no way for Apple to incorporate software that works with every camera out there.  And there's no standard for using other devices as a monitor for cameras.
Check with Canon or do a lookup in the App Store for Apps from Canon that are specifically for your 5d MarkIII.

  • Can I use the IPhone 6 plus in Canada if I bought it in Japan

    I am living in Japan for 4months.  I want to buy the IPhone 6 plus. But can I use it in Canada when I go back

    Hello!
    So I have a question for you guys which must have been posted a thousand times but I never get that specification that I'm looking for.
    I will be traveling to Japan and China and was wondering if I buy an iPhone 6 or iPhone 6 Plus there Sim Free and bring it back to Spain and put my spanish SIM card in it, will it work?
    I Understand that they don't sell unlocked iPhone!
    The real question is if I put my spanish SIM card will it be locked with my spanish carrier?

  • Can you use the iPhone wirelessly without activating AT&T?

    FIrst, I HATE AT&T, the coverage is awful and I am very happy with Verizon. I would like to use the iPhone as more of a PDA, and having a PDA with wireless connectivity would be great.
    Do you have to activate the phone plan, or can you just use it with a wireless connection?
    Any chance they will eventually offer it with other carriers?
    Thanks
    John

    Well you can be sure Apple will not make a product for Verizon for at least five years, as that is how long its contract lasts with ATT. That contract prevents Apple from allowing the iPhone to work on anybody else's network, and from making any phones for non-GSM networks. The only other GSM network in the US is T-Mobil. SO I suspect Apple can make a non iPhone for T-Mobile before its deal with ATT expires.
    Also, you can try going to ATT and telling them you want the iPhone, however, you will not provide them your social security number, and ask are there any options available to you. They may tell you that you can use the iPhone as a Go-Phone (they are not adversing this, but it is in their policy manual). After a month, cancel the go phone service (as there is no contract). Also, ATT generally allows you to cancel a contract with 30 days. So they might just let you cancel the contract, and your iPhone will probably still work (the non phone features).

  • Can I use the iPhone as a display or monitor?

    I would like to be able to connect an external camera to my iPhone and have the image displayed on the iPhones display.  I don't know of any application out that do this.  My question is really more of is it possible to do this if I write an application for it.
    Does the iOS frameworks and tools available for developers provide a way to access the iPhone display to show an image coming from an external device?
    Thanks for your help,
    TSoles

    Hellboy254,
    Again I think this is using some wireless connection to use the iPhone as an alternate display.
    What I really am attempting to do is generally the same thing that the Camera icon (software) is doing on the iPhone but I want to use an external connected camera to hijack, temporarily, the display.  There must be some communication taking place between the built in camera and the display in the standard Camera software.  Can I use those same principals (frameworks) to display the image from an external camera?
    Thanks,
    tsoles

  • Can You Use The iPhone 4S As An Ipod Touch?

    I'm just curious...
    I currently have the ipod touch 3G and last weekend I found out that it won't be compatiable with iOS 6 and I'm gonna have to get a new ipod.
    I want an iphone BUT do you need to activate it with a carrier (which I don't want) in order to use the itunes store/app store on it or can you just use it like you would an ipod touch?

    http://support.apple.com/kb/ht3406
    You activate with Apple not a carrier but you do need "A" sim
    in a new iPhone to activate the iPhone
    The above link will help on using without a sim

  • Can you use the same Hulu Plus subscription on both the iPad and PS3?

    Can anyone confirm whether a Hulu Plus subscription for the iPad also works for Sony's PS3 (or vice versa)? That is, can you pay ONE $9.99/month fee and have access from both the iPad and the PS3? The Hulu website seems to suggest that this is possible, but they don't come right out and say it. What I want to avoid is paying twice for the same service (i.e. $9.99 for the iPad AND $9.99 for the PS3).
    Could someone who has a Hulu Plus subscription and both an iPad and a PS3 check this out. As of today (Nov 10), everyone on the PS3 can sign up for Hulu Plus at no additional charge (other than the Hulu subscription). Previously you also needed to be a member of the PlayStation Plus service (at $50/year) in order to subscribe to Hulu Plus.
    Also, for anyone using a PS3 do you know whether the component video out works with Hulu Plus? Unfortunately, the iPad's component video out is NOT supported by the Hulu Plus app.

    Okay, so I signed up for Hulu Plus and my new (single) account is working on both my iPad and the PS3. Also, the component output on the PS3 seems to work fine with the Hulu content. However, the Hulu streaming performance on the PS3 seems a little rocky. On my first and second attempts to watch something the video would play for a few seconds and then pause for several more seconds, it was basically unwatchable.
    The content on my iPad seemed okay, so it looks like a problem on the PS3. Also, Netflix on the PS3 was fine and I even watched the same episode of a TV show that stuttered badly on the PS3. After watching the entire show on Netflix I went back to Hulu and the PS3 was still having problems. Then, after about another 10 minutes of playback hickups the PS3 seemed to get better. Maybe Sony's version of Hulu Plus (or someone's server) is getting overloaded right now since Hulu on the PS3 just went mainstream today.

  • Can you use your iMac 27" as an external Monitor for a PC?

    After doing a bunch of research I figured it's not possible to do on models later then 2010, BUT I came across a few motherboards (Asus Z87-DELUXE)
    that have thunderbolt capability and obviously before I go out and spend $400 I'd like to know if it's 100% possible.
    So, would it be possible to run a thunderbolt cable from a PC to an iMac to use it as a standalone monitor or would the iMac completely reject it purely based on the fact it's not a apple product?
    Or could you just use the "Mini DisplayPort to DVI Adapter" to get it to work?

    Even though the PC motherboard might have Thunderbolt capability you need to research further to see if the Thunderbolt port on the board supports video out and is certified to work in Target Display Mode. To date I have not seen any that meet this criteria, another PC shortcoming. Also you may benefit by reading Apple's FAQ on Target Display Mode, at least book mark it.

  • Can you use the same Apple ID on more than one MacBook Pro for updates and applications?

    We just got a few new MacBook Pro's and when I went to install updates it said I need to make an Apple ID.  Can you use the same Apple ID and email address for that Apple ID on multiple machines, or do I need them both to be unique per machine?  I'm not sure how that works when you have multiple machines.

    An Apple ID is a user name you use for everything you do with Apple. Creating an account for an Apple service, such as the iTunes Store or the App Store, creates an Apple ID. Apple ID allows you to access other Apple services.   So you can use the same Apple ID for up to 10 Macs associated with it.
    To create an Apple ID you need to enter  your full name and your primary email address as your Apple ID. This will be used as the contact email address for your account.

  • Can you use the same charging cable for both an iPhone and an IPad or are they different?  When I use the charging cable for my iPhone on my Ipad, it doesn't charge.

    Can you use the same charging cable for both an iPhone and an IPad or are they different?  When I use the charging cable for my iPhone on my Ipad, it doesn't charge.

    The quickest way (and really the only way) to charge your iPad is with the included 10W USB Power Adapter. iPad will also charge, although more slowly, when attached to a computer with a high-power USB port (many recent Mac computers) or with an iPhone Power Adapter (5W). When attached to a computer via a standard USB port (most PCs or older Mac computers) iPad will charge very slowly (but iPad indicates not charging). Make sure your computer is on while charging iPad via USB. If iPad is connected to a computer that’s turned off or is in sleep or standby mode, the iPad battery will continue to drain.
    Apple recommends that once a month you let the iPad fully discharge & then recharge to 100%.
    How to Calibrate Your Mac, iPhone, or iPad Battery
    http://www.macblend.com/how-to-calibrate-your-mac-iphone-or-ipad-battery/
    At this link http://www.tomshardware.com/reviews/galaxy-tab-android-tablet,3014-11.html , tests show that the iPad 2 battery (25 watt-hours) will charge to 90% in 3 hours 1 minute. It will charge to 100% in 4 hours 2 minutes. The new iPad has a larger capacity battery (42 watt-hours), so using the 10W charger will obviously take longer. If you are using your iPad while charging, it will take even longer. It's best to turn your new iPad OFF and charge over night.

  • When using the iphone 6 Plus. I use iMessage it is terribly slow to attach photo or take a photo the app does not show camera and slow... like 2 mins at least.

    When using the iphone 6 Plus. I use iMessage and then attach a photo or take a photo... the app does not show the camera fully or even to attach a photo does not work. I have about 8-9000 phones and like 10 short videos in there but it is incredibly slow and almost unable. I have the 128GB iPhone 6 Plus with 46 gb still available. I think this should not be so slow with so much memory still available. Please help. I am using 8.1.2. Yes I have set up the phone as a new phone. Apple store even reformatted this iphone 6 plus 2 months ago but it is still terribly slow Thanks

    Hey Bender1031,
    Thanks for the question, I can definitely understand how frustrating this issue may be with a brand new phone. Great troubleshooting so far by already attempting a restart and reset. If the issue persists, let’s try restoring your device and updating to the latest software (iOS 8.0.2):
    Back up and restore your iOS device with iCloud or iTunes
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766
    iOS: How to back up your data and set up your device as a new device
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4137
    After erasing and setting up as a new device, your device is now in a factory configuration. Test to determine if erasing and setting up as a new device resolved the issue. Content on the device may have caused unexpected behavior.
    - If the issue is still present, you may want to contact Apple Support.
    - If the issue is now resolved, sync one type of content at a time back to the device. For example, if you had an issue playing music, add songs from iTunes and confirm they will play. If your contacts weren't loading successfully, add the contacts back. After each sync, test to see if the issue has returned.
    Thanks,
    Matt M.

  • How can you use the same e-mail address for multiple ipads?

    I have two iPads.. an iPad and an ipad 2.  I registared my new ipad 2 and now my old ipad is will not let me log on and is telling me that my e-mail address is already in use.  how can you use the same e-mail address for multiple ipads?

    And by using the same Apple ID you can also share purchases.  If you have a different Apple ID for each iPhone then you can't share purchases.

  • Can i use the iphone in Hong Kong?

    Can i use the iphone in Hong Kong?

    You can't use it in Hong Kong with a local carrier if your phone is carrier locked to your current carrier.  No info in your post to detemine whether that's the case.  You can use if you want to pay high roaming charges.

  • Can you use the Vocal Transformer for Live Show?

    Can you use the Vocal Transformer for Live Show? I have automations set up in my vocal track using the vocal transformer and would like my vocals to adjust accordingly while performing live. Is this possible to configure and if so, how do I set it up at the venue?

    Vocal Transformer opens in MainStage. All controls in VT are visible & editable in MS. Don't set it up at the venue. Set it up in one or more patches before you leave your house. You will need up to twelve sliders or knobs plus one or two buttons on your controller to get the most out of it.
