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.

Can it use on d1100 canon?my camera don't have WiFi..
Please answer the questions in your comment section.
It's 2023 and I just found out about this SD card's existence. Thank you for enlightening me!
Shows you might not used devices with SD-cards. It been a standard for a long time in alot of electronics 😅
I just found this too, but the reviews and their bad connections to wifi. That is what I am seeing now, just as I too was considering buying them.
2024 and I just found out
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.
Three years later, just discovered this workaround
Its 3/27/22 and I just learned about this too. Where have I been?
August 2022 and I’m learning about this shit now 🤦♀️🤦♀️
May 2023 and it’s blowing my mind
So as long as I have this WiFi could I connect to “Canon Connect” app?
Im gonna get a sd card today. I have a FujiFilm camera and its gonna be WiFi now. Thanks for sharing your information.
Thanks, I'll give this a go. When I'm out "hunting" with my camera I worry about backing up and editing my photos. I never take a laptop on my travels but always my phone with decent editing software in it. This might just make life alot easier for me.
Thanks for the info - really good - any idea if this would work with my old Nikon D40? Transcend's compatibility list doesn't mention it.
Great review, will that transcend sd card work for canon rebel t2i? Thanks
Hi @gadgetaddict I have the transend sd card and a Canon 1200D it doesn't seem to work for me. Can you tell me that it should work and I will try different things to get it to work. Thankyou
I have the first version of the 7D Cannon. Would this work for that camera as well? The 7D Mark II has Wifi. I'm looking for the first version of the 7D.
will it work in reverse - files from pc to camera?
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.
Great, I was struggling with my camera with no wifi, you have solved my problem. Thank you very much.
Or just purchase an OnThe Go cable for your phone attached to a card reader
Will this work with video connected to my iPhone as a secondary camera for say , Facebook live?
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 .
I'd like to use the wifi to do remote image preview on my iphone, but if the camera doesn't have live image preview, would the wifi SD card help?
I have a nikon d3300 but its a moder that has only SDHC/SD card and not SDXC but is it good?
I have noramal digital canon camera,not dslr camera,would this help viewing live shot on my cell phone before taking a photo?
Good day sir. Will this work with my eos 7d? Thanks pls reply. Need it badly...
OMG! Why didn’t I know about this!? 🙌🏾 THANK YOUUUU! Purchasing one. Appreciate you.

Can those Wi-Fi cards connect to an existing hotspot? I'm looking to transfer images to a PC over an internal network.
does anyone know if you can transfer the videos to your gallery so you can edit them and get them on CZcams
Cos I am using canon 60d and I use iPhone so I need a help where I can get this card and the app is it cromo
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

🐷
Wait u go what website ?
I am asking this question for a product design project. For anyone who is reading this, I have a query. It shows data transfer taking place from Camera to Computer. If we try, will it also happen vice versa (from Computer to Camera memory)?
Thanks.
Hi. Great info but what about batch downloading multiple. Dozens or hundreds? Tks
Can I use it with my camcorder or Sony cyber shot
Do you have to be connected to the Internet To just send to your phone. Thanks
this is so helpful! thank you
Sir, can i connect wifi to canon sx500?
Will the picture quality decrease while downloading the picture from the browser?
I have searched high and low, but cannot find a card like this. I have also looked at the Transcend web site and on Amazon and they do not appear to sell this item. Could you please advise how to source the WiFi SD Cards for my Canon EOS 60D? Thanks, Paul
Can I upload a file to the card? I need a way to send print files to my 3d printer.
Hello, thanks for the video. this may work on canon 500D ? many thanks
Would this work for a canon t3i?
Hey, for what you shared with us your video regarding Wi-Fi SD if you did not share what about it you did not Emphasized regarding that? I need to know or we to know about it ASAP.
Will this work with my Canon T5i?
Thanx for the informative video. Now, if it hasn't been asked before: how big of a drain on the camera's battery is the constant usage of the card's WI-FI? Does it significantly decrease the number of available shots? Also, you never mentioned anything about the speed of transfer if you do multiple image transfers. How fast time-wise, say, it can transfer 500MB worth of data? Does it require a special proprietary software for a laptop? And lastly, what is the card's working range: how many feet you can be away from your computer - have you tried it?
Thank you for anticipated reply.
Will this work in a Canon eos 100d?
2020 and I found out this is a thing... 😳 awesome video!
🐷
Hi, will it work with nikon D7000
Great info, but can you use your wifi sd card to control your camera?
Where has this been all my life?
Thank you thank you! This saved me so much
If you take the photo in raw how does it work ?
What camera are you using
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..
Same question here !
🤣😂😂
I’d like to know about this too. My bf has an old canon but would like to have the self timer option to view on his phone.
Highly unlikely, since this is a storage device. Your camera would need to provide this functionality.
Mines not working I connected once and after it just went off ? I need some help!
Are there gb limitations?
Can i use a 128 gb card or more?
Nice video!
Can i have a direcy link to this please?
Where can I buy this? Can you send a link
Gadget addict pla toh e 😂 may gnito plang sdcard haha
can we password protect the wifi? i don't want anybody else to be able to connect and get the photos
Looks promising, still if I'm correct photos do not transfer automatically so you can't just to go tablet and scroll thought your files (which you can if u have canon dslr with wifi, and pair both devices).
Great video! Thanks for the insight!
Thank you.
Can this wifi card being used to connect a Canon Rebel T5 to the Canon connect app?
😂😂😂😂😂
hi there. if i put wifi sd card into photo trap. I have written somewhere that it will turn off wifi after 5 minutes. After that time how can i turn that wifi on without touching photo trap? The only way is somehow to turn on phototrap f.e. by GSM sms message? and it will turn on this wifi too? this would be great for not to let other know exact location of photo trap. I want to protect bees by this.
connections to PC ???
what about "Video live view" and laptop tethering from Capture One (for example) is still working
Unfortunately the SD card doesn't support any advanced features like that.
Thanks, Good to know
bloody hell.....that's impressive
I have one old camera what youse cf cards, if i buy cf to sd adapter and then put wifi sd to that, would it work? And sorry for bad english..
Your English is perfectly understandable. I'm not sure if it would work because I've never tried it. But I think it would work :)
Please explain the IP address section and how to connect the camera to it?
