All of the camera's controls remain fully operational when connected to the PC and pictures can be taken directly using the camera's shutter release or remotely from the PC. It is advisable to use a mains DC adaptor when using DSLR Remote Pro for Windows for extended periods or when using the time lapse features. If the camera is located a long way from the PC or is not easily accessible it is essential that there is a way of turning the power to the camera on and off. Then if there is a communication failure between the camera and PC it is possible to turn everything off and to start again. Photo Booth Mode Please see the section on photo booth shooting for help on setting up a photo booth. Camera notes for photo booth users Best value camera for photo booth shooting: Canon EOS 1300D/Rebel T6. Suitable for normal photo booth shooting and boomerang GIFs, but not recommended for video because it cannot use an external microphone. Most versatile camera: Canon EOS M50 This camera has all the advantages of the Canon EOS 200D/Rebel SL2 and Canon EOS 750D/Rebel T6i, but is more compact, particularly when using the EF-M 22mm STM lens. The Canon EOS M50 is also suitable for slow motion video capture because it can capture video a 120fps and save it at 1/4 speed (30fps). Important: Please check that the M50 is running firmware version 1.0.2 or later. Earlier versions of the camera firmware may not trigger external flash reliably when the shutter speed is set to 1/125 of faster. Best value camera for photo and video booth shooting: Canon EOS 200D/Rebel SL2 This camera have microphone inputs allowing an external microphone to be used for better sound © 2021 Breeze Systems Ltd 4 quality when recording video. It also has Canon's excellent dual pixel AF for improved auto focus in live view. The Canon EOS 200D/SL2 is slightly more compact than the Canon EOS 750D/Rebel T6i. Use with caution: Canon EOS 2000D (aka Canon EOS 1500D and Rebel T7) and Canon EOS 250D (aka Canon EOS 200D Mark II and Rebel SL3): These cameras make it tricky to use external flash because they do not have a central contact on the hotshoe. This limits it to E-TTL compatible flash. A normal hotshoe to PC sync adaptor will not work with these cameras. Note: In spring 2020 Canon updated
