Does Backyard EOS support a Canon EOS R?

Yes, you need to download 3.1.18 pre-release in the download pre-release section.

Please post questions about BackyardEOS in the BackyardEOS Forum rather than the General Forum.

Thanks.

I have moved this thread in the BYE forum.

Does this mean you can use Backyard EOS to access the Canon EOS R wirelessly?  The Canon EOS Ra is about to be available and I am curious.

Jodi,

BackyardEOS uses the Canon EOS SDK to manage the camera. So, if the SDK supports wireless communication with the camera in a manner that is transparent to BYE then BYE should work just fine.
