Does anyone know if there is some type of app (or is it even possible) to link my Samsung tablet to my 5D MK2?

Sorry, Android develop exclusively for Nikon.
Go check on iTunes if you want Canon apps.

(*that's the way it works in my head at least*)

Honestly though, there should be something out there, but I don't know if it's 3rd party or native

There definitely is one. I spotted a guy using it yesterday. Android. Mk2 I didn't ask him what it's called because I have an iphone.

ok, Canon have "Canon Camera Connect" and "Eos Remote" apps in the Google Play store; neither one which list the 5D Mk 2

**Edit:**
"Canon DSLR Browser" from Bike-o-Net claim their app is 'currently tests with EOS 7D and the WFT-E5 transmitter - but should work with any Canon DSLR and transmitter capable of UPNP MediaServ Mode.

The 5D-MK2 has no WiFi, so connecting it to a phone is problematic. If you are only interested in transmitting photos to a phone, then I can recommend the EyeFi card. It is an SD card, so you will also need a CF adapter (I tried a 3rd party adapter, which worked erratically. The EyeFi branded adapter works well for me).

You do need an otg adapter

Edit: I did try it on my 6D. It worked so i purchased the app. I do not use it that much as the 6d has built-in Wi-Fi

Yes thanks, I just saw that and I think I'm going to get that, I want to connect to my tablet for shooting and getting a better live view when recording video.
