t6i/760d Audio meters not showing on lcd

PLNDR — Wed, 27 Sep 2017 13:15:33 GMT

Hi,

Im trying to find a way to show the audio meters on the lcd since I can't put headphones in to monitor this would be pretty nice to have. But im having trouble finding it and begin to wonder if it's even possible?

My steps:

Put the camera on manual film mode

Go to the menu an put the audio also on manual there I see the beatifull meters bouncing away

Go back out of the menu no audio meters to be seen

Press info a couple of times showing al kinds of setting, oh look even a histogram but no audio levels..

The weird thing is I came across this:

(Canon EOS Rebel T6i / 750D For Dummies)

<But this does not work for me.

If anyone has an answer It would be much appreciated.

I believe the only way to see the meters is to use the menu.

I did answer the question. The answer is "no". This is all the audio info you get when shooting a movie:

(Oh, and the T6i is the 750D, the T6S is the 760D)
