Thanks -- I've been really bummed that they left 6D Mk. 1 owners out in the cold on this one. Does anyone know of a similar linux app that works over USB rathe

  I've been using a 6D mk.1 with the Windows version of the Canon Webcam Utility Beta for a couple weeks now. No issues with running it, so far.

  6D Mk 1 works great with Canon Webcam Utility Beta on macOS! I'm using it now.

  I've been using gphoto2 and ffmpeg on linux to use my 6D MkII as a webcam. I did test it with my old old rebel XSI and it did work as well here is the command sudo modprobe v4l2loopback exclusive_caps=1 max_buffers=2 gphoto2 --stdout --capture-movie | ffmpeg -i - -vcodec rawvideo -pix_fmt yuv420p -an -threads 0 -r 24 -f v4l2 /dev/video2 I did wrap in a shell script to test if the module is already loaded.

    Awesome -- I'll have to give it a try :)!

    Works on the 6D. Thank you! I'm only getting ~4 fps, with substantial latency. Is that your experience? Image quality on the first lens I had at hand (40mm f/2.8) blows my Logitech 920 away. Field of view on the 920 is equivalent to a ~26mm on full-frame. Super excited to see if my slightly-broken EOS M will do the trick, too.
