Copy photos using wifi Olympus TG3 to Mac OSX

Jun 29, 2014

Hi guys,

I am happy owner of Olympus Tough 3, it is my first rugged camera, basically just shooting in "hard" conditions, on the boat, and during snorkelling...

Anyway I managed to copy picture using WIFI to iOS, that was easy. Now I want to copy pics from camera to my macbook. I just can not find the way, so what I tried:

searched interned
connected from computer to camera using wifi
Olympus viever 3 / Aperture doesnt see camera
I find out, camera got IP 192.168.0.10 and it is possible to browse photos using web browser
I tried to connect to server using finder (afp, smb, http...nothing connects, but ftp is seems alive, I am going to try nmap/port scanner, which ports are open)

So far, I can not copy pictures from camera using WIFI to computer. Maybe anybody knows how to do it simple? I am programmer, so it can not be big probem to make small script, which scans for all pictures and copy them (actually simple wget would do it, I think).

Thanks for any ideas.

Edit: output from nmap:

Does it show up in Image Capture? (You may have to manually boot Applications > Image Capture, and look to see if it shows up under Devices or under Shared in the left hand column. You may have to hover your cursor over "Shared" in the left hand column, in case the camera is "hidden" and then click "show" to make it visible.)

I just tried it, it doesn't work, no device there.

I tried connecting to Oly WIFI, then starting Image Capture, no devices detected (0,0), and vice versa - starting Image Capture first, and then connecting to WIFI - same result, no device detected (0,0).

Any more ideas?

I have not tried this personally but unless Olympus changed the Wifi capabilities that it built into the TG3 from what it has in the other cameras (I have the M4/3 EM10 and the Stylus 1) and they only connect to an mobile/tablet device using the Olympus Share app. I don't think that there is a way using the Wifi network that the camera sets up to connect to a computer.

The only thing I can suggest (and again I have not tried this) is to turn on the Wifi from the camera and see if the computer "sees" and connects to the camera's wifi network. (I guess you would have to manually enter the passcode.) If it does connect, then I guess use either Image Capture or iPhoto to import the photos.

One question - why not just remove the SD card from the camera and import the photos to the Mac that way?

Hi, thanks for trying help.

The thing is - I can connect to wifi camera exactly as you described, thats not a problem. I can even browse using BROWSER (chrome, safari...) the photos. But I just can not import them, I tried Image Capture, Aperture (I am not using iPhoto anymore), but no import from there.

So, it seems, officially it is not possible to transfer photos from Olympus Camera to Mac OSX (wondering, if it is possible on windows, but I dont think so), so I have to write my own script for that - not a big deal.

And you asking why I dont want to insert SD card...just because I bought Olympus with WIFI, and I want to use it, otherwise I would buy something else without WIFI support.

Anyway, thanks.

They make WiFi enabled SD cards that would fit your needs. WiFi support on a camera obviously means something different to you then it does to me and the manufacturer. I think it means I can control the camera and share photos to applications that support it. Not that it magically makes a network share that is usable by a operating system.

OK I see. It is quite pity, because, for example, I think it would be quite useful - I made photo, share it to computer, immediately can edit it in photo program such as Aperture and publish. I don't see reason why it should be limited just to mobile devices.

Anyway, at least now is on internet information, it is not straight from camera, and maybe in future there will be some programs, which will do what (I guess) we want.

Thanks for all responses and info.

You are a lucky guy. I'm still waiting for my TG3.

I found a thread from other group that talk about OI.Share

http://www.dpreview.com/forums/thread/3546263

So far no one knows what transfer protocol that Olympus is using … However, a gentleman brought up an interesting idea, which he uses android app player (BlueStacks) on PC. He use Bluestacks for remote controlling the camera. I had a look at BlueStack don’t think it will work for you. (I don’t think it allow you to access the Android file system…)

But you may able to download the file thru other android emulator to your MAC.

Basically, run an Android VM on your MAC. Install apps that needed for file transfer.

1) Set up the Android Emulator on your MAC. Try Genymotion

2) Install OI Share on the Android Emulator for getting picture from TG3

3) Install FTP server on the Android Emulator for transfering picture from Android to your MAC.

Genymotion (Android Emulator)

(official site) www.genymotion.com

(Introduction) http://www.addictivetips.com/windows-tips/genymotion-android-emulator-for-os-x-windows-linux/

Genymotion seems like brother of Virtual Box. I’ve been using virtual box for a while, pretty stable.

Android Studio (Android Emulator)

(official site) http://developer.android.com/tools/devices/emulator.html

(Set up video) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ORW3HxrmLTY

I just come up with this solution during lunch time. Not a great solution (it put a heavy load on your mac), but I think it will work …

Good luck.

thanks for nice work-around. I was emulating Android when I wanted to share some photos on Instagram using computer, so I got experience with this. If I will find time, I will post here simple script, which will copy pictures to computer, it is really simple using wget or similar tool.

I can see all pics as previews (thumbnails) and it also opens JPGs, but not ORFs.

Download is possible with a manually typed URL, but only one by one.

So you'll need indeed wget to automate this.

Cheers,

SOLVED (using terminal)

In reply to 2ge • Jul 10, 2014

ok guys, so I find some time to play with this. I come with this abraca-dabra command, which you run in terminal:

wget -q -O - http://192.168.0.10/DCIM/100OLYMP | awk -F\" '/wlansd\[[0-9]/ {print "http://192.168.0.10" $2}' | sed -E 's/(.*(JPG|MOV|AVI))(.+)/\1/' | sed 's/,/\//' | xargs wget

it should copy all jpg,avi and mov to current directory. I am sure, it can be written better, but this works (at least for me, I dont know if TG-3 can be on other IP address and also I believe dir 100OLYMP can be also different, so there is still some space to hack this, but then hard to do in 1 line, I could write perl program for that..., but this just works).

Output in terminal looks like:

MBP:Oly 2ge$ wget -q -O - http://192.168.0.10/DCIM/100OLYMP | awk -F\" '/wlansd\[[0-9]/ {print "http://192.168.0.10" $2}' | sed -E 's/(.*(JPG|MOV|AVI))(.+)/\1/' | sed 's/,/\//' | xargs wget

I'm with the OP. The primary use for wireless, for me, is image transfer. I'm amazed they make it so hard.

Not a straight import, but this certainly gets the job done. I add them to Camera Roll on the iPhone. They show up in "Photos" app on the Mac. Export the "Unmodified Original" from Photos and open in Photoshop.

Most modern cameras will shoot video to one degree or another, but these are the ones we’d look at if you plan to shoot some video alongside your photos. We’ve chosen cameras that can take great photos and make it easy to get great looking video, rather than being the ones you’d choose as a committed videographer.

Although a lot of people only upload images to Instagram from their smartphones, the app is much more than just a mobile photography platform. In this guide we've chosen a selection of cameras that make it easy to shoot compelling lifestyle images, ideal for sharing on social media.
