Hey
considering purchasing A G5x mk II as I’d like something more flexible than my phone but just as pocketable. Question is my wife is always on at me to share photos and having gone through a fair share of cameras over the years the pain of transferring photos to either phone or pc to edit and then share has been an issue.
I’ve looked around but couldn’t really find much apart from how to connect via WiFi,etc And I did read the manual about the canon image gateway that is now called image.canon.
I use google photos and it seems to suggest image.canon will send to this. Question is it automatic, I hate having to mess around switching phone wifi to camera wifi waiting to connect, disconnect,etc. is it a case of once it’s setup I can send to wifi or phone via Bluetooth,nfc,wifi automatically?
thanks
The auto-transfer function available through the canon connect app auto transfers images shot to your smartphone. Getting it to google photos requires another hop. I have no advice regarding the latter. I haven’t played with image.canon; it would presumably need access to internet via your smartphone or a WiFi router to complete the transaction. I would guess image.canon has google photos API access, which probably requires setup. The only thing I do is auto transfer to my phone. The rest, nope, but on paper, it sounds do-able. Some work needed. It’s not auto-magic.
