Add WiFi to any Camera with a WiFi SD card!

It's possible to add WiFi to any camera, including that old DSLR sitting on your shelf.

in this video, I show a simple but clever SD card that has built in WiFi and allows you to transfer pictures from your camera to your phone, tablet or laptop without connecting any wires and without installing any apps.

Wi-Fi enabled SD cards are quite a bit more expensive than their regular counterparts but they're extremely convenient if you want to be able to access and share your photos while on the go.

I'm using the Transcend 16GB Wi-Fi SDHC card but there are other manufacturers who also sell similar products.

For the techies out there, believe it or not, the card is actually running a Linux OS and you can get root access to install extra scripts and apps. Of course it's quite limited due to the low-power CPU and small amount of RAM.

It's 2023 and I just found out about this SD card's existence. Thank you for enlightening me!

It's 2020...and yes, now I don't need to break my heart to discard my first dslr camera. Thanks!

Filmed on 2016, and I’m just discovering this now?! Gonna look the prices on this one, it’ll be very useful for my old canon eos 650d.

So as long as I have this WiFi could I connect to “Canon Connect” app?

Actually, the dslr you are using does have live view! I think you can find a menu on the settings and then use the circle set button to activate that function.

Im gonna get a sd card today. I have a FujiFilm camera and its gonna be WiFi now. Thanks for sharing your information.

what is more impressive is that the sd card is a mini linux computer hosting a web server!

Which is faster and safer ? Physical lighting cable to usb or this way ?

[HowToGuys]

have you used transcend app, works much better to instant backup, also there are Chinese version of this SD support both ap and station mode .

Great info, but can you use your wifi sd card to control your camera?

You put a Linux Computer into a DSLR. Congratulations!

Hey! Thanks for the video!
Q: this wifi SD card also helps to connect to a mobile app to control remote autofocus??

I've a Cannon t4i and I want to take selfies with it and I was thinking that maybe a wifi adapter can work instead of IR feature..

Thanks for telling about those wires 😂. I would have spent my life thinking what was those wires and do I need them . Lovely video thanks very much

I have one of these. Not bad at all actually.

[indaycouponera]

Can we use that one for camera connect in the phone? To make the phone as a shutter or remote ?

[RetroDaddyPH]
