Connecting Canon camera directly to Ipad pro

Hi,

One of the main reasons I bought the new iPad pro is that you are supposed to be able to directly connect a DSLR to it. I tried this with a canon 5D mk4 and M5, no joy from either.

Can someone help please.

Thanks in advance.

Take photo with Image Capture According to this Apple Support Page you are able to take pictures with Image Capture. - I have tried this with my iPhone (7, latest iOS) and iPad (Pro, latest iOS), doesn't work. (File > Take Picture is grey) - I have tried it with my old Nikon D90 and also an older Canon 850, doesn't work. Two questions: 1. Shouldn't an iOS device work? 2. Which DSLR cameras' do work? PS. I do see all pictures on the units and can import them. But I want to control the camera, to take pictures from the Mac. DS
