Screen Sharing from OS X El Capitan to iOS

Hello Apple Community,

I have an extremely improbable question. I have a 13" Macbook Pro running OS 10.11.5 (El Capitan), and an iPhone 5S running iOS 9.3.2.

My question is: Is there any way I can view my Macbook screen on my iPhone?

I want to use my iPhone as a small monitor for my Canon T6s for when I'm operating my steadicam. I downloaded Canon Camera Connect on both my Macbook and iPhone. However the version for iPhone only allows control of the camera when it is in photo mode. Where as the OS X version allows for photo and video control. I was hoping there would be some work around for this, but so far I can only find "How to view iOS on OS X.

MacBook Pro (13-inch Mid 2012), OS X El Capitan (10.11.5), iPhone 5S iOS 9.3.2

You can see/control you Mac (and PC too) using app like the free TeamViewer and paid LogMeIn and other similar apps. You need the app on both devices. Just searched the App Store in iTunes. I searched for "Team Viewer" and the paid LogMeIn and other were included in the search results.

Just note it is not easy since your iPhone 5S is small. I have used TeamViewer on an iPad and then it was not that easy
