summary
Want to use canon Of sdk Make a preview in real time .
Preparation
Some of the previous camera connections , You can refer to the article I wrote before QT Use canon sdk Take a picture and save it to this machine
Preview steps in real time
StartLiveView
Declare a variable to mark m_isLiveView To mark liveview Open or not .
Output live preview to PC On
device |= kEdsEvfOutputDevice_PC;
// -----------------------------
void MainWindow::StartLiveView()
{
// Change settings because live view cannot be started
// when camera settings are set to "do not perform live view."
// Turn on
EdsError err = EDS_ERR_OK;
uint evfMode = 1;
// hold 1 write in enable
err = EdsSetPropertyData(m_camera, kEdsPropID_Evf_Mode, 1, sizeof(uint), &evfMode);
m_isLiveView = true;
// Get the output device for the live view image
EdsUInt32 device;
err = EdsGetPropertyData(m_camera, kEdsPropID_Evf_OutputDevice, 0, sizeof(device), &device);
if(err == EDS_ERR_OK)
{
device |= kEdsEvfOutputDevice_PC;
err = EdsSetPropertyData(m_camera, kEdsPropID_Evf_OutputDevice, 0 , sizeof(device), &device);
}
}
Flow the preview image to QImage And then to Mat
QImage img = QImage::fromData(data, length, "JPG");
Turn the image into QImage Format , This is the most important , I've been searching the Internet for a long time , I don't know how to use data and length, A lot of it is on the Internet vb and c# To deal with the , No, C++ Of .
// ------------------------------------
bool MainWindow::requestLiveViewImage()
{
EdsError error = EDS_ERR_OK;
EdsStreamRef stream = NULL;
EdsEvfImageRef evfImage = NULL;

// -----------------------------------------
cv::Mat MainWindow::QImageToMat(QImage& src)
{
// Pay attention to this CV_8UC4 It has something to do with the format of the image you take with your camera , If it doesn't meet , Images can be corrupted , There's something wrong with it
cv::Mat tmp(src.height(),src.width(),CV_8UC4,(uchar*)src.bits(),src.bytesPerLine());
cv::Mat result = tmp.clone(); // Deep copy
return result;
}
stay OpenCv It shows that
// -------------------------
void MainWindow::ShowVideo()
{
namedWindow("yunhu",WINDOW_NORMAL);
while(1)
{
requestLiveViewImage();
// m_image It's generated by transformation Mat
if(m_image.data != NULL)
{
imshow("yunhu", m_image);
cvWaitKey(50);
}
}
