Canon PowerShot SX60 HS Instruction Manual

Sending still images and movies between two Canon-brand
cameras (PowerShot SX60 HS / PowerShot G7X)

You can connect two cameras via Wi-Fi and send images between them as follows.
IMPORTANT
The position and shape of the operation buttons, screens displayed, and setting items may differ
depending on the model you use.
NOTE
•Only Canon-brand cameras equipped with a Wi-Fi function can be connectedto
wirelessly. Even Canon-brand cameras that support Eye-Fi cards cannotbe
connected to if they do not have a Wi-Fi function. You cannot connect to
PowerShot SD430 DIGITAL ELPH WIRELESS/DIGITAL IXUS WIRELESS
cameras with this method.
•Connections require that a memory card be in the camera.
•Keep your fingers or other objects off the Wi-Fi antenna area. Covering this may
decrease the speed of your image transfers.
•Depending on the condition of the network you are using, it may take a long time
to send movies. Be sure to keep an eye on the camera battery level.
•Up to 50 images can be sent together at once. One movie up to five minutes (or
one digest movie up to 13 minutes) can be sent. However, Web services may limit
the number of images or length of movies you can send. For details, refer to the
Web service you are using.
•For movies that you do not compress, a separate, compressed file is sent instead
of the original file. Note that this may delay transmission, and the file cannot be
sent unless there is enough space for it on the memory card.
•On the screen, wireless signal strength is indicated by the following icons.
[ ] high, [ ] medium, [ ] low, [ ] weak
