I have a DSLR; Is it compatible with PIXIO?Any DSLR can be mounted on Pixio. But DSLRs do nothaveamotorized zoom. The zoomwill remain fixed.Becarefull that DSLRs generally do not have autofocus invideomode,sothevideomaybeblurry.
Where do I get the mechanical interface to allow smartphone and tablet to be used for filming?You need a common adaptor between Pixio and thesmartphoneortablet.Itisgenerallycalled«smartphone/tablettripodadaptor».Itcostsafewdollarsandcanbefoundeasily.
