EOSWebcam
EOSWebcam is a CoreMediaIO virtual camera plugin from Canon that allows compatible Canon EOS cameras to function as a webcam input for macOS applications like Zoom, Google Meet, FaceTime, and other video conferencing or streaming tools. The plugin integrates the camera directly into the system's camera selection menu, enabling high-quality video input from Canon's DSLR and mirrorless cameras. It is installed as a system-level component rather than a standalone application.
AI Recommendation
1 suggestionEOSWebcam is a CoreMediaIO plugin component and is updated through Canon's EOS Webcam Utility installer, not separately. The original Intel-only version of the plugin does not work with native Apple Silicon apps because it is compiled for x86_64 architecture only. Canon released a native Apple Silicon build of EOS Webcam Utility in late 2022 (initially available from Canon's Asia support page). If you are still running the Intel-only version, download and install the latest version of Canon's EOS Webcam Utility from Canon's official support site — the current installer includes the native Apple Silicon build of the CoreMediaIO plugin. After installation, the plugin will work natively with Apple Silicon-native applications like the current versions of Chrome, Safari, Zoom, and FaceTime. If you have installed an older version of the utility, reinstalling with the latest build will replace the Intel-only plugin with the native version.
