#22Am I the only one with strong objections to using Zoom as a verb? Putting aside the fact that it's already a verb, which courses plenty of confusion, I can go along with using Photoshop as a verb, because it is objectively the most powerful and widely used tool with a very long legacy. But Zoom is a clunky insecure mess with impressive, but not nearly leading market share. Is this really who we want to be gifting the…
Zoom is a verb.

Despite that list, it actually works against much older devices. I've ran it with a T2i, for example, which is like three generations older than they officially support.
How do you download the app? They require a serial number.

#25> The camera sends the image used for Live View - the dimensions will not match the camera's movie recording settings. This sounds like a bummer. I want to try this anyways to give my old Powershot a new purpose. Did anybody check this out yet?
I use it with a T6s, along with CamTwist. It looks like it's bad latency and resolution initially but but you have to open the Preferences in CamTwist and increase FPS to 30 and size to 1920x1080.

Haha, sorry, just had to.
Actually, I totally agree with you. To Photoshop can't be that much misunderstood, but I think a lot of us read the heading as it used zoom in it's original meaning.

If it's already a verb, confusion should come from people using "Zoom" as a noun, the use of it as a verb is the expected situation not the confusing situation.
Either way, citation needed - who has been confused?

People will use it or not use it regardless of objections...

#29Why not use Canon's own EOS Webcam Utility? https://www.usa.canon.com/internet/portal/us/home/about/news...
In my experience Canon's app is way better, both on Windows and Mac

"zoom" is a verb (also sometimes a noun), "Zoom" (the company/product) is a noun.
I agree that "Zoom" as a noun is already confusing as capitalization isn't a very reliable way to differentiate words, but "Zoom" (the noun) being used as a verb that is completely different from "zoom" (the verb) is a whole other level of confusion on top of that.
For citations, see your sibling comments. And besides, confusion clearly wasn't my main point.
