Wow. And I just bought a field monitor for 10x the price. Thanks awesome vid!

[@FerdinandDivinagracia]

I think this is no replacement for a proper field monitor but this can be useful in most cases in the absence of a good one.

Man, regardless of how usefull your vid is i'm gonna downvote it 4 using muzak. It *HURTS* , man, *IT FLIPPING HURTS!!!*

[@calmthechaos7288]

What's the software and the lead called please. Ty btw good vid

[@hanswi336]

The adapter is only for YOUR phone - not in general. The music is annoying and doesn't belong to a technical tutorial - and it's too loud anyway. Why didn't you control your video focus - most of your app settings are so blurred that nobody can follow what you're doing. Therefore, the video is kind of worthless.

[@rathukakarot]

Can we disable the host mode? My camera controls are gone when connected using wifi. Also, hdmi to otg is not getting on phone. Where as other otg camera app is allowing me to see live view. I am using nikon d750

[@yeltsinegos6126]

Is the app compatible to Nikon D3200/D5100? 😁

[@FerdinandDivinagracia]

Haven't tried with those camera models but I have a feeling it will work

[@torchos]

I have a d3200...works great.

[@ShantanuMonga]

Does that app allow to adjust focus on nikon d750.. want to sell bcz of no tilt screen only. This video is bit hopeful before i sell.

Yes you can focus by touching the screen on your mobile phone

I cannot say. I do not own an eos 3000D but my best guess is that it will probably work.

[@Dylon1981]

yup. been doing that since 2016 mate. but no need to use usb cable. just use the wifi of the d750. the qdslrdashboard can connect to it wirelessly.

[@FerdinandDivinagracia]

There might be changes with the recent version since you cannot record video now if connected only via wifi

WiFi is extra battery consumption for longer shoots & risks disconnecting at any moment

Does it steal the liveview from the dslr? Or does it duplicate the live view from the dslr? If it steal the liveview from the dslr, it will not do eye autofocus of the dslr. But if it duplicates the liveview from the dslr, eye autofocus will still usable.
