Thank you so much for the great information. I'm still having trouble linking to the HDMI Video Capture Card and want to make sure I get the right one. Would you mind reposting the link or letting me knw which one you use? Thanks so much!
Thank you so much for this video! This is the only video I can find where they mentioned that the EOS Utility was different than the EOS Webcam Utility. I had deleted all the drivers and everything while troubleshooting a problem I had and only downloaded the EOS Utility again and was wondering why it wouldn't work. Once I downloaded the EOS Webcam Utility again it works perfect lol Thanks again.🙌🏾
Thank you for this video. That is a lot of help! As to clean HDMI output, on the Mark I, it's a simple solution with only one button. That is the "Info" button on the backside of the camera. Press this, and you have clean output 😉 And also, you can buy a power supply adapter for the camera, with a dummy battery. Then you have unlimited battery, and if you record to e.g. Camtasia, you may record as long as you want to.
Thank you so much for making these videos! I'm very excited to start using my Canon EOS M50 for my own content creation! Going to have a lot of fun with this!
have a question hopefully you may be able to answer... how do you charge the camera while its being used? is the charged battery enough lifesspan for a long stream?
how do you disable the camera side menus when you want to record in OBS that shows the cameras battery life, AWB, the fps, the time ? It's on both sides
0:28 Thanks for mentioning that "Canon Utility" is not the same as "Canon WEBCAM Utility". I downloaded the wrong one... Sadly I had to find out that Webcam Utility isn't compatible with my Camera. Guess I'm gonna go with the capture card method 👍
When i connect my m50 mkII to my PC, on the camera display screen it show charging the camera through my PC, thus not making me able to connect as a webcam to OBS. ( on the camera screen shows a battery and a laptop indicating its charging.) Any solutions???
Good video. Just about the Canon M50I which is the older version. You do have a clean HDMI, you just need to press the INFO button a few times and u will get the Clean HDMI output.
@@HustleSavvy you're right but the autofocus on M50 isn't that great so I always Manuel focus the area I want and use it like that but I still have a problem with it that the video freezes for me. If u have a solution for it, would be great
@@TheMZ11 I'm using the M50 with settings for short film shooting, 30fps, 60 shutter etc and mine seems great in autofocus. It's not so great at 4K tho, it could be the problem but i've never had a freeze
Loved this video, you have a great channel! I thought you were talking about my camera type the whole time (I have an M100...) Wish I could make content like yours on my channel! That's why I subscribed, keep it up! Greetings from Denmark!
Bonjour, svp, quand je branche ma caméra Canon 2000D via câble HDMI avec le logiciel Webcam, dès que je reçois l'image dans le logiciel le petit écran de la caméra s'éteint. Que faire pour visionner sur ma caméra et sur mon pc?
Would you know how to change the aspect ratio for the mark II on streamyard? I'm noticing I'm way too close up and im not using any zoom...id like to change the ratio to push me back some. Thank you
I have a question - I have the M50 mkII set up with a capture card but it seems to stop after a couple of minutes and I have to keep refreshing the video source to get it to come back - do you know what causes that and how to fix it?
u dont need capture card or canon utility to use a canon like a web cam, you could activate calls in livestream in the camera settings and camera will be be reconignized in obs settings. At my r10 works floweless. The minus is u cant rechearge battery simultaneously on usb port.
My vids are cutting after 1 minute with the capture card 😢. And I'll have to adjust the lens to see again ..however the utility works fine. Thanks and please help using a m50
my issue is i'm using this on an ipad and it seems it is copressing the image on the ipad screen or "squeezing" it from the sides. i've tried different aspect ratios already. is there any thing else i could try?
Quick question just for some clarification can i get clean hdmi using the canon m50 with the canon utility app? I think i hard you say it will only work with the canon m50 markII
I may not be able to give an accurate solution without looking at your setup, but here are some things I did: 1) Use the right kind of lighting and ensure there is enough of it. 2) When using the software to livestream / record video , tweak the settings to change brightness, saturation, etc. 3) If it's a video recording, you can also take it a step further by doing some colour correction and colour grading in your video editing software
I have the m50 and a Mac book pro M1 and my computer will not recognize my camera...any help?? it only works in obs when I'm in "live webcam" not as a device
@Hustle Savvy I am currently using a USB cable and EOS ultility... the only way it works is thr live web shot ...would trying the hdmi cable help? I don't want to have to get a capture card if it's not necessary I use the camera for live fitness classes through obs
@@keepmovingwithemily it should work with just EOS webcam utility (it's different from EOS Utility, name is almost the same) and USB cable. It's hard to troubleshoot since I don't know your OBS settings. What I can say is you should add a scene in OBS > add source > video capture device > select EOS Webcam Utility Hope this helps. I'm covering this in my upcoming tutorial.
My m 50 seems to turn off every 30 minutes using the capture card and theres no way to keep it on vs the webcam utility software. Is there any way around this?
Is connecting the M50 directly to a PC only really for streaming/webcam/zoom purposes or would it work well as a good way to record UA-cam videos directly into PC for editing. Basically directly connecting M50 to PC vs memory card recording for making videos? Thanks for your vids I find them clean explanations.
So from my understanding is that even though the EOS webcam utility is a lower resolution, it’s uncompressed so it still looks pretty good. I could be wrong though
I'm using my Canon M50 with the crop sensor and my pancake 22mm F/2.0 lens, and the image quality is fantastic! if it's compressed at all I'd be very surprised
Gracias, Bajé el programa pero por alguna razón cuando conecto la cámara no me aparece, y dice algo así como que se necesita descargar algún programa más.
Hi all, coukd you please help me? I installed EOS Webcam Utility but when I choose it on any software and see EOS WEBCAM UTILITY sign instead of picture from camera. Does anybody know why it happens? Thanks!
I am getting clean HDMI with my Cannon M50 version 1.1.0. I just press the Info button until the screen is clean. Occasionally when moving the camera around a lot, I see the focus box come up, but that doesn't happen often. My issue is that I can only set the display off timer to 30 min. After that the stream stops. I'll try keeping connected to EOS Utility 3 to see if that keeps the display on. Otherwise I have to press the shutter button a few times.
I currently use my iPhone7 for recording video for my channels. I’m considering upgrading my camera. I have a friend who is selling his Canon M50 Mark II camera with a 3 axis gimbal, an extra manual lens, four additional batteries, an additional battery charger, a camera carrying case, a continuous charger for filming, a camera protector for shooting outside in the rain. He’s asking $650. Any thoughts?
You can get a dummy battery which you can then connect to a power socket. Check out the link in my description under "my recording equipment (desktop)".
I’ve tried both of these ways and my Canon M50 freezes/black screens. I’ve tried everything. New ports. New cables. Went in camera settings. Window settings. Updated my bios. Updated camera firmware and canon utility app to always have the latest version and still no luck with the camera freezing. I even have the screen flipped out and facing me too.
as of 2024 unfortunately if you want quality higher than 720p on EOS Webcam and the REGULAR Utility, you have to pay for a monthly subscription from Canon themselves... give one more point to the capture card... xD
Another thing I don’t understand is why we have iPhone apps that let us use our phones as webcams at 1080p over usb 2.0 but canon webcam utility can’t do 1080p. Just kind of weird
I've looked all over. The webcam utility is no longer available. all the links given on UA-cam channels speaking on the matter are giving the classic 404 error. Anyone have any follow-up?
That's weird I can access it just fine. Which region are you from? Maybe their website redirected you based on your location. I found a few more from Google search: Europe - www.canon-europe.com/cameras/eos-webcam-utility/ Malaysia - my.canon/en/campaign/webcam-utility
I do want to let others who are watching this video know that their are flaws in the EOS Webcam Utility Pro software is that you have to sign up and subscribe to a paid subscription to use live streaming.
Hi all, some of you reported that the webpage link is broken, I've updated the link in the description.

Glad to hear that your problem is solved (and my research paid off 😆)! What else do you need help with when it comes to the M50?

but the MK1 will still shutdown the HDMI after ~30min -> Resulting in a Black Signal. Kind of useless.
I was having such a headache trying to figure this out, turns out the similar naming for EOS Utility and EOS **Webcam** Utility really got me
I KNOW RIGHT?! This is why I just had to make this video, I went through the pain myself.
hi! Thanks
do you have the solution for the normal canon m50? please
Thanks so much for sharing, I just tried this on my normal Canon m50, from the utility web cam app, and I surprisingly had a clean HDMI out!
this video is super useful and lead me to download the right software in not even a minute haha! thanks a lot!
3:30 you can get a clean screen by pressing the info button a few times, hope that helps
that is correct on the older model M50! Info button gets you clean picture after 3 presses.
Are you about the downscaling ? because I've done 1080p streaming and it worked fine before.
FINALLY SOMEONE SOLVED MY PROBLEM, thank you so much!!!!!
As always, you have solved all my problems! thanks so much. I really learn from your very helpful videos!
Thank you so much for making these videos! I'm very excited to start using my Canon EOS M50 for my own content creation! Going to have a lot of fun with this!
How did you get the tracking meter to not appear on screen ?
Do you know of anyway to get the autofocus face box off the screen in the older models? I can't get it to go away no matter what I do:(
Great video thank you! (Loved the laugh at the Logitech webcam quality difference - haha!) 😂
Can you just straight up connect the Micro HDMI into the HDMI port in my PC?
have a question hopefully you may be able to answer... how do you charge the camera while its being used? is the charged battery enough lifesspan for a long stream?
Look into something called a "dummy battery". You put it into the camera like normal, plug it into a wall and boom. Unlimited power.
that works for the mark 2 not the mark 1 ye?
Thanks for the video bro !
how do you disable the camera side menus when you want to record in OBS that shows the cameras battery life, AWB, the fps, the time ? It's on both sides
What about the audio ? Does the M50 do the audio capture when we use Eos Webcam Utility ?
Hello sir, did you manage to find a solution for the regular m50 camera? that doesn't ahve the clean hdmi out
Hi! Just watch this today. I want to know, is the video quality will still downscale to 1024x576p?
Any capture card work around for the M50 first gen model?
0:28 Thanks for mentioning that "Canon Utility" is not the same as "Canon WEBCAM Utility". I downloaded the wrong one...
Sadly I had to find out that Webcam Utility isn't compatible with my Camera. Guess I'm gonna go with the capture card method 👍
I use the m50 mkii but I dont have the HDMI info disp option.
When i connect my m50 mkII to my PC, on the camera display screen it show charging the camera through my PC, thus not making me able to connect as a webcam to OBS. ( on the camera screen shows a battery and a laptop indicating its charging.) Any solutions???
What about an r8? Do you think the capture card still yields a better result vs the EOS software?
Thank you ! This is exactly what I was looking for. :)
Good video.
Just about the Canon M50I which is the older version. You do have a clean HDMI, you just need to press the INFO button a few times and u will get the Clean HDMI output.

I have a question - I have the M50 mkII set up with a capture card but it seems to stop after a couple of minutes and I have to keep refreshing the video source to get it to come back - do you know what causes that and how to fix it?
Buy a capture card and use Sparko cam. M50 markI .. everything works
Awesome!
for the M50 old one you have too turn all the settings manually like each one by one
Hi! Question. Can't I just connect my canon to the HDMI slot on my computer and then run it through OBS? I'm using Windows 10
Is this for the M50 Mark 1?
I bought that one and never used it because of the "dirty HDMI" out
Do you need a dummy battery for this?
LIFE SAVER!!!!! Thank you so so much!!!
What if I want to connect my canon m50 to my atem mini pro video switcher. What do I need to do?
Has the technology changed since early DSLR where there is now no risk of burning out the Sensor if you record for too long?
Informative and to the point. Well done!
what lens do u use?
eos is a virtual cam, not a software, so it's listed in your video capture software as a recording source.
I am unable to find Eos option in zoom video setting please assist
i have a capture card but already mu nintendo switch plugged on it.. and don't want plug/unplug devices everytime.

How did you download the software ?
Link in the description. Just follow instructions in the website.
Hi, my capture card video quality is over-saturated (like most peoples with this cheap card). How did you get yours to not over-saturate?
I may not be able to give an accurate solution without looking at your setup, but here are some things I did:
1) Use the right kind of lighting and ensure there is enough of it.
