The third and simplest wireless option is Eye-Fi card support. In this case, however, the camera cannot act as a wireless access point.
Principle of operation and functionality
Basic Wi-Fi capabilities in cameras are completely trivial. These are, for example, copying photos to mobile devices, hot backup, sending content to social media or cloud storage, remote viewfinder and remote control taking photos and videos. Other functions are less obvious and not found in all manufacturers - viewing pictures on DLNA-enabled TVs, geotagging using a smartphone or tablet, establishing a connection using an NFC module or QR codes, downloading additional applications to the camera or updating firmware.
Most wireless features require downloading and installing special software for smartphones, tablets and regular PCs. Apps are provided free of charge and often require the version of the operating system and the mobile device itself to be fully compatible. Let's consider each of them in more detail.
Transferring data to a mobile device
One of basic functions, available for almost any camera with Wi-Fi. By installing the appropriate application, you will have access to the pictures on the camera's memory card. The app lets you choose which pictures to upload, and also lets you change the file format or resolution before downloading to save space.
Data transfer to PC
The ability to transfer footage to a PC via a wireless router appeared in cameras one of the first. In this case, special software must be installed on the computer, but in most cases it is not required.
Working as a server
Sometimes you need to quickly send pictures to a group of people who are not at all interested in installing any applications on their smartphones or tablets. In this case, the server function with the function of quick access and copying of pictures will be useful.
Remote viewfinder and remote control
An interesting function that can be found in the series useful applications. Remote control is suitable, for example, for filming in wild nature or for self-portraits. At the same time, the image that fell into the field of view of the camera lens is broadcast on the smartphone screen. This happens with a slight delay, which should be kept in mind when shooting action scenes remotely. Different manufacturers offer a different set of available settings that can be changed remotely. Selecting a focus point, zooming, adjusting exposure, starting video recording are the main features. The footage can be immediately copied to a mobile device for further work.
Sending by e-mail
Also one of the basic functions of a Wi-Fi transmitter. There are two ways to send by e-mail- directly or via tablet/smartphone. In the first case, the camera connects to the Internet and your mailbox and sends pictures to the specified address. In the second case, the photos are first copied to the mobile device and sent using its own Internet connection.
One touch transfer
If there is an NFC module in the camera and mobile device, you can not only quickly establish a Wi-Fi connection between them, but also reset the selected data from the camera with one touch. NFC is supported on Android OS version 2.3.3 and above.
special effects
Mobile applications from some manufacturers allow you to apply various artistic effects to pictures transferred from the camera via Wi-Fi. Often the camera itself has this feature, but if you use it for remote shooting, it will be more convenient to apply effects from a smartphone or tablet.
Reservation
Most mobile applications allow you to organize a real-time backup of all footage. Backup can also be done on a PC. It differs from the usual transfer of images via Wi-Fi by automating the entire process. The camera will transmit each captured frame to a smartphone or tablet without external interference. Or a laptop.
Uploading to social networks
As in the case of e-mail, sending files to social networks can be done directly or via a mobile device. The list of social networks is quite large - YouTube, Picassa, Flickr, Facebook, Twitter and so on. The final list depends on the specific application, manufacturer and even camera model. Before uploading, it is possible to change the resolution of the pictures, as well as add your own comments. It is noteworthy that companies that supply their products to Russian-speaking countries also offer support for the VKontakte and Odnoklassniki networks. However, this is still the exception rather than the rule.
Upload to cloud storage
Cloud storage is rapidly gaining popularity. Dropbox, Google Drive, Microsoft SkyDrive are popular services for data synchronization and storage. A number of camera manufacturers allow you to upload images to such storages, again with the help of special mobile applications.
Geotagging
Applications that transfer pictures over Wi-Fi also allow you to add geotagging. Geodata is supplied by the GPS module of a tablet or smartphone. Pictures with such marks can later be uploaded to social networks and displayed on a world map.
Firmware update
When connected to a Wi-Fi network with Internet access, some cameras can automatically check for the latest firmware and automatically download and install it. A very handy, albeit rarely used, feature.
Remote viewing without copying
This function allows you to view the contents of the memory card remotely without downloading pictures and videos. Often, remote video viewing is not possible.
Wireless printing
A number of modern printers are compatible with Wi-Fi, which means that it is possible to transfer pictures from the camera to the printer for printing directly without wires.
Output to TV
Modern TVs that support DLNA standards can display pictures and videos directly from the camera. Of course, without wires.
Different manufacturers pay different attention to the implementation of wireless functionality. Panasonic, for example, leads the way in terms of the variety of wireless features in its products. Samsung is in second place, but has been pushing Wi-Fi to the masses more actively and for a long time. The company even created something like an ecosystem called Smart Camera 2.0 - a family of smart cameras able to communicate with other devices. Other manufacturers, such as Fujifilm, Olympus, are only taking tentative steps in this area so far.
There are currently three ways to set up wireless network and establishing a connection. In the first case, the camera works as a Wi-Fi access point, and remote connections are made manually and using known network data (SSID, password, and so on).
The second method was proposed by Panasonic. The essence of the idea is the use of an NFC chip that transmits network settings to a smartphone or tablet when they are in close proximity to the camera. In this case, the connection is configured automatically. To date, only 5 models of the family Panasonic Lumix and one model of the Samsung NX series are equipped with NFC. It is also worth noting that NFC technology has not yet reached Apple products, so it will not work to make friends with an iPhone or iPad with a camera.
The third, most elegant way belongs to the engineers from Olympus. Instead of an NFC module, the camera display is used, which displays a QR code with Wi-Fi connection settings. A smartphone with a pre-installed proprietary application reads this code with its own camera and connects. So far, only a model can boast in such an extraordinary way. Olympus PEN E-P5.
We decided to present all the main Wi-Fi functions in the form of a table and use it when describing the cameras below. The presence or absence of a particular function will be indicated by the signs "+" or "-". The table will also show the name mobile application required for work and important comments. It is worth noting here that manufacturers have undeservedly bypassed the Windows Phone system - not a single application has been released for it yet! However, the situation will change in the near future.
Android Cameras
Another category of cameras stands apart - compacts based on Android. While we were preparing this material, Samsung managed to give birth to two more devices, including one mirrorless camera - Galaxy NX. We will talk about it in a separate review.
Samsung Galaxy Camera
Samsung Galaxy Camera with only Wi-Fi on board came out later than its more advanced sisters with 3G and 4G modules. However, in our case, this does not change the essence - otherwise, the functionality of the cameras is identical. The main feature of the camera is the Android OS version 4.1 and a powerful "smartphone" stuffing in the form of a quad-core processor with a frequency of 1.4 GHz. For control here is a large touchscreen with a diagonal of 4.8 inches. Photographic iron looks more modest. The 16.3-megapixel sensor is made using BSI CMOS technology and has a standard 1/2.3" format for compacts, which in any case is larger than modern smartphones can afford.

Step by step setup guide
Some Nikon DSLRs and COOLPIX cameras have built-in Wi-Fi®. This makes it easy to transfer images from the camera to a compatible smartphone or tablet for sharing with others. An important feature Nikon Wi-Fi enabled cameras is that the user does not need to be near a Wi-Fi hotspot to connect to a smartphone or tablet. The camera can connect to a smart device directly.
Most smartphones have a photo function, but Nikon digital cameras tend to take better photos. This is because digital cameras use larger sensors and powerful image processing systems. The camera's sensor offers higher resolution and wider dynamic range, as well as low-light photography and high ISO speeds. All this guarantees high quality photographs. In addition, Nikon digital cameras are equipped with high-quality NIKKOR lenses, as well as optional accessories and a variety of functions that allow you to get creative with your photography.
Images can be downloaded to a compatible smart device that has the Nikon Wireless Mobile Utility (WMU) application installed. This app can be downloaded for free from the iTunes Online Store® and Google Play™ Store for Android™ devices.
A high-resolution camera records large files, so shooting at the highest resolution is not recommended if you intend to transfer images to a smart device via Wi-Fi. This is because the larger the file size, the longer it takes to transfer it from the camera to the device. For the same reason, it is recommended to select the JPG file format rather than NEF. Also, when shooting images with “JPEG Fine” settings, quality" and "Large" files will be larger than when "JPEG Bottom" is selected. quality" and medium or small. If the images are intended to be viewed only on digital devices, you can preset the camera to record smaller files.
If you still want to take pictures using the higher resolution provided by the camera, set the application to only load images of the recommended size or even smaller VGA resolution while the card will store high resolution images . The necessary settings can be set in the application menu.
Remote control
The smart device can be used for remote shooting. This will allow you to get into the frame yourself, or even set up your camera in nature and remotely press the shutter release to take pictures of wild animals. And most importantly, you will be able to see on the screen of a smart device exactly what is captured by the camera lens. So you can choose the right moment to shoot. To find out if your camera supports this feature, see your camera's user manual.
With a Nikon digital camera with built-in Wi-Fi, you can easily share your photos with friends and family. You can also share movies shot with a Nikon digital camera.
Using the built-in Wi-Fi module of a compatible camera
To use the Wi-Fi function of a Nikon camera equipped with built-in Wi-Fi, you need to download free app Wireless Mobile Utility.
In addition, full access to the Wi-Fi menu requires a memory card to be inserted in the camera.
Usage android devices™
Android™ device users should download the app from the Google Play™ Store and install it on their Android™ device.
Using your Apple™ device
iOS device users should download the app from the iTunes Online Store® .
Android users can connect their smart device to a compatible camera in three ways, while iOS users can only connect one. The instructions below for connecting by selecting WI-FI networks or the camera SSID on the smart device is suitable for both Android™ and iOS users. This is the fastest and easiest way to connect as it uses an unencrypted connection.
Android™ users can also connect using the WPS (Wi-Fi Secure Setup) button if the smart device supports it, or by entering a WPS (Wi-Fi Secure Setup) PIN. Step by step instructions to set up the connection by these methods, see the camera's user's manual.
Once connected, you will have access to the camera from within the app. When selecting the “Remote shooting” function in the application live mode view is launched automatically, allowing you to see on the smart device screen what is in the camera lens.
Connecting a compatible camera to a smart device
1. Turn on your camera's built-in Wi-Fi. The latest models are equipped with an external Wi-Fi button. On some earlier models, you need to select the Wi-Fi item in the setup menu.
2. Open the Wi-Fi settings of the smart device and select the camera from the list of available networks. The network name begins with the word Nikon followed by a series of letters and numbers. Android users only need to set up a network connection once, and then the device will automatically connect to the camera when the camera's Wi-Fi is turned on. iOS users need to follow this step every time they want to use the Nikon camera's wireless module to connect to a smartphone.
3. Launch the application on your smartphone Wireless Mobile Utility.
Connecting a compatible Android™ device to an NFC-enabled Nikon camera
Users of a smartphone running Android 4.0 or later and an NFC-enabled Nikon camera can use the NFC (Near Field Communication) function to connect the Nikon camera to a smartphone and open the app.
It will be enough for you to place N label camera near an Android smartphone so that the Wireless Mobile Utility app starts and both devices establish a connection. After that, you can take pictures or view pictures.
Some Nikon digital cameras have built-in Wi-Fi, making it easy to connect to compatible smart devices. Wi-Fi module settings can be found in the settings menu.
Go to the Wi-Fi settings in the settings menu and select "Enable" to enable Wi-Fi on the camera.
Selecting "Enable" to enable WiFi connections, you will see Network Connection is set to ON.
The adapter bribed with its humane price compared to Transcend WIFI SD, PQI Air and Eye-Fi. In general, this adapter is positioned for quick access to footage in a camera or camcorder. As it turned out later, you can ONLY download photo and video files via wifi.

Came in a beautiful package with high quality printing. The box inside is reinforced with plastic. The seller attached a "thank you letter". 
And here is the culprit of the review itself 
The write protection tab is one-piece with the body and stands in the “Write enabled” position. On the reverse side alternative labeling Lzeal DS100 is found.
The main advantage of the software is the presence of the Auto-Push function, in which all new files will be automatically uploaded to the local storage on the client.
It is convenient to use it in a photo studio. I took a picture, and the freshly photographed muzzle of the face immediately filled up on the computer without unnecessary gestures.
In the android version, the downloaded photo can be immediately processed in full. The list of effects and features is amazing. There are more of them than on Instagram. You can also see all EXIF parameters.
To view photo and video material, it is proposed to use two different pages "Photo gallery" and "Video gallery". Which is a little inconvenient.
Then you can immediately go to the desired folder, if there is more than one. So we got to paging through 16 thumbnails.
This is what the photos look like. For some reason, it picks up photos from me only from folders along the path / DCIM / * /. RAW thumbnails are naturally not displayed. 
Everything in the video gallery is not so colorful anymore, there will be no sketches and winter too 
For a detailed review, you can view the photo in full screen. 
There are three ways to download files:
- files separately
- selected files from one thumbnail view page
- folder completely
If you download a separate RAW or AVI file, then the speed is limited to 1750Kb / s.
When downloading an archive - the speed is up to 1700Kb / s.
To download a file of an unsupported type, you need to change the extension to one from the list of supported ones, then it will be displayed in the corresponding gallery and you can download it. Here is such a feint with the ears.

I plan to buy +88 Add to favourites Liked the review +84 +168In recent years, WiFi has been gaining more and more sympathy from users, so it is not surprising that more and more different digital gadgets are acquiring support for this wireless communication standard. This trend did not bypass our good old device - reflex camera with WiFi has long been a reality. Today we will turn our eyes to it and see what's what and why it is needed at all.
How does a WiFi DSLR work?
Actually, the WiFi camera is designed to perform three tasks:
- Sending files directly to the Internet
- Transferring a photo to a computer or smartphone
- Remote camera control from your phone
If we are talking about an amateur photo, then this opportunity is rather a pleasant, but not a very necessary bonus to the camera. But professional photographers, when minutes decide everything and you urgently need to send some sensational shot to the editor, they will be very happy about the opportunity to send their materials directly. If the camera with wifi also has Android OS, then you can even edit the photo before sending it.
Well, backup, which saves not only space on the memory card, but also protects your photos from loss due to a breakdown of this card or failure of the entire camera, will be very useful not only for professionals, but also for amateurs - it's a shame to lose beautiful shots due to for minor oversights or broken appliances.
The second is a more convenient wireless connection with the computer or TV itself - these wires are always lost, and if your camera still has some kind of non-standard connector and there is no cable at hand, then you have to pull out the card and look for where to insert it to showcase your photos . To communicate with a PC or smartphone, you will need to pre-install some programs on them, which are full of free access - there will be no problems with this.
Also, sometimes it is possible to establish a direct connection and exchange frames between several compatible models of wifi cameras.
And if you have a wireless printer at home, you can quickly and easily print your photos.
And the most interesting thing is the ability to remotely control the camera from your phone - there is even such a thing! It is very convenient to put the device at a distance and shoot from the remote control-mobile phone.
In short, there are a lot of pluses - let's figure out how it all works.
How to connect a SLR camera to a computer via wifi?
In addition to models that already have a built-in WiFi module, it is possible for a simple camera to go online. To do this, it sometimes implements the function of supporting external adapters with the appropriate connectors for different models.
Another option is to use special Eye-Fi cards in supported devices. In the latter case, however, the camera cannot work as an access point - that is, it will not be possible to connect to it from other devices, but only to upload video from it to a computer.
I think it just doesn't make sense to list all the possible uses - let's look at a real example - we'll connect the Canon EOS 70D to a tablet. There is a very wide built-in wifi camera functionality, there is almost everything that I have already listed - transferring images between several cameras with wifi, connecting with a smartphone, remote control from a computer, printing on a printer, uploading to the Internet and viewing images according to the DLNA standard.
So, let's first set up the camera itself to work with WiFi to connect to a computer. First, enable the wireless module in the settings.
We go into the WiFi function menu and come up with a name for our fotik, which will be displayed on the network.
After saving the settings, go to the wifi connection types selection menu and click on the “Smartphone” icon.
The next step is to decide how the connection will be made - directly or through an existing local network.
Direct connection between camera and phone via WiFi
Direct connection of the camera and smartphone via WiFi is characterized by poor communication quality and a short range. To activate this mode, select "Camera access point mode" in the menu
After that, select "Connect manually" and set the network name (SSID).
After that, you can manually set the data transfer channel and encryption type, but this is not necessary. That's it - the access point has been created and you can go to your smartphone. To work with Canon cameras on a smartphone or tablet, you will need to install the EOS Remote Utility program - it is available for both Android and Apple.
We put it, run it and select the type of work - viewing pictures or remote control. WiFi must be enabled on the phone.
After that, a search will be made for suitable cameras within the range - we find our own and connect to it using the specified password.
After that, we again look at the camera, on the screen of which a request will appear to confirm the connection to it from your phone.
We approve and receive on a mobile phone or tablet either a list of photos from the camera, or a panel for its remote control, depending on what we chose at the beginning.
Connecting the camera to a computer via wifi
It is even more practical to use the local network that has long been set up in the house thanks to the articles on this site, so we will take the first step from the previous section and select “Infrastructure Mode” for the wifi connection type. After that, you will be asked to find and connect to a wifi network that suits us.
After that, just like in the previous case, we open the EOS program, connect to the camera from the phone and work. This is how, for example, the camera control panel looks on the phone screen.
That's all, I think you understand why you need a camera with wifi.
