Basic concepts on using with iMac

Phocaea · 09-16-2019, 07:14 AM

I have been given a D6000, and am using it on a lcd monitor successfully. But I would love to use my iMac as an external monitor for my Dell 7840

Apologies in advance for not understanding what I am sure are 101 questions

My iMac is a late 2013 model. It has thunderbolt 2 ports. Can it be used this way with a thunderbolt 3 / USB-C adapter? And can it ONLY be used as an external monitor with MacBooks and MacOS?

Thanks
