Sending Images to an NFC-Compatible

Smartphone

Using an NFC-compatible Android smartphone (OS version 4.0 or later)

simplifies the process of installing Camera Connect and connecting the

devices via NFC.

Operation once the devices are connected via NFC varies depending on

the camera mode when the devices are touched together.

If the camera is off or in Shooting mode when the devices are touched

together, you can choose and send images on the image selection

screen. Once the devices are connected, you can also shoot remotely

and geotag your shots (= 135). It’s easy to reconnect to recent

devices, which are listed in the Wi-Fi menu.

When you touch the smartphone in Playback mode, the screen with

a list of images that you can choose to send is displayed. Choose an

image to send it.

Follow the instructions in the following section for NFC-initiated connection

to a camera that is off or in Shooting mode.

Sending Images to a Smartphone

There are several ways to connect the camera to a smartphone and

send images.

Connect via NFC (= 113)

Simply touch an NFC-compatible Android smartphone (OS version 4.0

or later) against the camera to connect the devices.

You can connect the camera to a smartphone as you would connect it

to a computer or other device. Multiple smartphones can be added.

Before connecting to the camera, you must install the free dedicated

Camera Connect app on the smartphone. For details on this application

(supported smartphones and included functions), refer to the Canon website.

If you own a Wi-Fi compatible Canon camera and your camera
and smartphone are connected to Wi-Fi, it is recommended
that you change the app that you use on your smartphone from
“CameraWindow” to “Camera Connect”.
