How to Use a Computer to Monitor Your Canon HDSLR When Shooting Video

http://www.HDVideoBlogging.com - A lot of you are shooting your blog videos with Canon HDSLR's. The video quality is great! But, focusing, adjusting exposure and framing yourself can be a pain with these cameras.

Canon gives you free software for tethered shooting. What a lot of people don't know is you can use the software for shooting video too. In this video I show you how easy it is to use Canon's EOS Utility to control and monitor your camera.

Hey Mike, is the video being recorded to the computer or the CF card? Looking for a way to record straight to the computer.

@mdaleo great question!

The video is being recorded to CF card. I don't know of any solutions right now for recording directly to the computer.

If any anyone does know of a solution, post it in the comments. I would be interested in finding a way of recording directly to the computer too.
