- geerlingguy 7y agoBut the software and connection process are terrible, and have been for years.
- arethuza 7y agoI have a Nikon D1000 and the process is fairly painless - I use an app on my iPad to review the pictures and select the ones I want to download from the camera and once I do that they are treated like any other picture and uploaded to iCloud etc.
- muro 7y agoIndeed, getting them to connect is always a few minutes of frustration that sometimes makes them connect.
- floatboth 7y agoPretty seamless on Sony. Just select "upload to smartphone", enter the password that's displayed on the camera into the Android app, done.
- Symbiote 7y agoAt least on my Sony RX10 IV, the authentication was only necessary the first time (by NFS or QR code scan). Since then, I - Open the Sony app, press "receive" - View the picture I want to transfer, press "transfer" (physical button), select "confirm" (or select further pictures). The UI could perhaps be slightly nicer, but it's not really a barrier here.
- virtualritz 7y agoBut you can only get JPEGs that way. No way to grab RAWs from the camera. But most android apps I use to finalize images do support RAW now. Google Photos supports RAW etc., etc. Also, I almost always seem have to restart the app once or twice until my camera shows up. This is on three different android phones that I've gone through since I bought my a7II.
- inferiorhuman 7y agoThe only DSLR with WiFi hardware I've tried was the Nikon D750. Yeah, it was bad to the point where I think I'd rather have an EyeFi.
