Lcd display on canon rebel xti

bungaro79

Hi
I've a loan of my dad's canon rebel xti to use with a telescope. I have the adaptor for it but the one thing I can't work out is to view what you're shooting through the screen at the back (as I need to adjust the scope to stop the photos coming out blurry). I have read through the manual (https://www.uwo.ca/Rebel_Xti_400D) but I can't seem to find if this can be done with this camera. Anyone know if I can do this on a canon camera??
Thanks

Tiriel

You mean you want live view on the screen and not have to look through the viewfinder? I think (please someone correct me if I'm wrong) that the rebel xti is the 400D and it doesn't have that capability.

Other models do have live view including the xsi (450D) or 40D/50D/60D plus most newer models).
