Hey, everyone! New to this community, and I'm already asking for help. I just got my R5C, and I was hoping to use it as a webcam. I downloaded the software for the normal R5 since there wasn't an R5C option available. It didn't work. Am I missing something dumb? Or do I just need to wait until Canon adds that to the list of camera that are webcam utility available? I appreciate any advice on this. Thanks!

So basically you're saying I shouldn't need the utility program at all. Once I connect the camera and change the USB setting, The camera should pop up as a webcam itself. I'm going to give this a shot thank you so much.

Yes, that’s correct. Which is why, when setting up the eos webcam software the r5c isn’t an option.
