M6

[m.smith@aptech.co.uk]

Hi

I was hoping to use my Eos M6 with BYEOS but I saw that it is not supported. Can you tell me why that is please? I see that the M6 Mk2 is supported.

 

Regards

It's supported, please download 3.5.0.RC7 from the pre-reslease section.

Hmmm, Guylain may have spoken too quickly.

As far as I know, BYE can only support those camera models that the Canon-provided SDK software library supports. This has prevented BYE from supporting those models, since Canon decided not to support tethering of those early mirrorless camera models.

If this has changed, then I apologize, but that is the way that it has historically been.

If the M6 is now supported, the Supported Cameras table should be updated to reflect this.

You are 100% correct, I misread the M6 for the R6. The M6 Mk2 is supported as well as the R6 and R6 Mk2, but the straight M6 is not, sadly.
