Linked shooting
If you need to capture images of a subject
from several angles at once, then linked
shooting is the solution. This allows one
master camera fitted with a WFT unit to
trigger up to 10 slave cameras also fitted
with a WFT units, over a range of up to
100m. You can use this feature to capture
pictures from up to 10 different angles –
see the diagram above.
FTP transfer mode
FTP mode is the simplest operating mode
of a WFT unit. It allows image transfer directly
from your camera to a computer or server.
Images can be automatically transferred as
soon as they are captured, sent individually,
or sent as a batch, sending only the ones
you want to send.
Media server
Selected Canon WFT units are DLNA
(Digital Living Network Alliance) compatible
and can be connect to media players such
as some games consoles as well as some
televisions and digital photo frames. This
allows JPEG images to be displayed on a TV
directly from the camera, without first having
to download the images to your computer.
