A while ago I provided a how to guide on how to use a DSLR for Facebook Live, a tutorial specifically for Canon EOS DSLRs. Over the last few months I have learned some new things to simplify this process so I wanted to update the guide.

As a reminder, my solution is essentially free so there is no need to open up your wallet and shell out a lot of bucks for expensive video capture cards or streaming software. You do need to connect the camera to a computer via a USB cable so you may have to invest in a longer cable if the one you have is not long enough to reach your subject matter.
