Taking a smartphone photo of your camera's back screen to show off menu settings usually looks terrible. If you want pristine, guide-book quality screenshots of your camera menus for a blog post or YouTube video, here is the exact HDMI-to-USB hardware setup I use to capture them cleanly.
My name is David Coleman, and this is my site. I take photos for a living. Seven continents. Dozens of countries. Up mountains. Underwater. And a bunch of places in between. I'm based in Washington, D.C.
This site is where I post practical photography help, tips, and troubleshooting.
All posts and reviews on this site are written by me. And I only review gear with which I have personal hands-on experience. By a photographer, for photographers. More about me.
