    Though I'm dying to go full frame, that might as well give my ancient Canon 50D a new life - specially in macro photography, where things do tend to allow for a slower-than-average pace than with street or wild life photography - my most and second most types of photography! Thank you so much from Brazil!

    Thanks for this video! I have a question: Once you take a picture from the app, is it automatically saved on your camera and your tablet or where does it save to? Do you lose any picture quality by taking pictures through the app?

    Thank you so much for posting this! Today the lcd of my Nikon accidentally broke during some outdoor shooting. I was desperate, the camera is still new. I called the assistance to see if they could substitute the lcd and they told me they could but for a crazy price. Then I saw your video and I am using my old iPhone as lcd instead.

    The problem with this method is that there is significant lag between what the camera sees and the time it takes to display that on the phone (watch the leaves at the end of the vid). If you're doing stationary shots or just want a bigger screen, use this. If you're shooting handheld, stabilising, panning etc., it's def worth it to buy an actual monitor,

    Hi Harsh Punjabi,
    Is it fair to say that depending on the phone and app, the phone display may give a false reading/visual output than that of the DSLR even if you were to adjust the settings, which may result in cheap, amateur looking footage and be harder or impossible to edit in post? Thanks, James.

    Thanks! But it would be better to have a small ballhead to mount your phone so you can adjust the viewing angle. If your phone's screen and camera screen are just parallel to each other then you're just wasting effort putting this on. This would help selfie addicts though. 😊

      The one benefit even if the screens are parallel is that depending on your camera, you might have a very low definition screen making it hard to tell if it's in focus or not. That's actually why I was looking into a phone as a monitor. I also love the other options that come with it like changing the angle as you said.
