Is it possible to link my camera to my desktop Mac so I can view what I am recording? (In camera mode). Of course I can view the imagery via the camera display but I want to be able to view it real time on a bigger display. Thank you.</P> Fri, 18 Jul 2014 16:24:16 GMT https://community.usa.canon.com/t5/Point-Shoot-Digital-Cameras/External-monitor/m-p/105003#M5760 Trayon5 2014-07-18T16:24:16Z https://community.usa.canon.com/t5/Point-Shoot-Digital-Cameras/External-monitor/m-p/105025#M5761 <P>To my knowledge the external display is only available for playback not live viewing on all the Powershot cameras.</P> Fri, 18 Jul 2014 17:32:37 GMT https://community.usa.canon.com/t5/Point-Shoot-Digital-Cameras/External-monitor/m-p/105025#M5761 John_ 2014-07-18T17:32:37Z https://community.usa.canon.com/t5/Point-Shoot-Digital-Cameras/External-monitor/m-p/105231#M5762 <P>Unfortunately no. Some of the PowerShot cameras used to have that ffeature, but it has been removed once the video standard was changed from VGA and SVGA to the newer formats. Tethering is an option on some of the EOS cameras, but mostly for the mid to higher end Canon DSLR's.</P><P>&nbsp;</P><P>Steve M.</P> Sat, 19 Jul 2014 22:13:19 GMT https://community.usa.canon.com/t5/Point-Shoot-Digital-Cameras/External-monitor/m-p/105231#M5762 smack53 2014-07-19T22:13:19Z
