Live View not working Canon EOS 5d Mark 2

[mahmut_1283]

I tethered my camera and I can photoshoot with LrC but I cannot activate Live View. I push Live button but live view doesn't open any screen. There is a Note on LrC support page: "Live view for Canon 5D M2 works only with the Still Only mode" But I don't find Still Only mode on my camera.

Hey @mahmut_1283, 

Are you in manual mode when you're trying to tether? Have you tried another cable and checked that your camera's firmware is up to date?

Thank you CMass for your reply. I solved my problem with "still only" setting.

Its in the settings menus.   Choose "Stills Only" from the menu

BTW, my above post is a screen clip for setting the camera to "still+movie".   You need to change the settings to "stills only".   I couldnt file a clip for the exact instructions.
