All they have to do is download the application to their NFC-enabled iOS or Android device, and start transferring.<\/p>\n<p>But transferring those great shots is not the only thing this application has made easier for you. With CameraWindow, you can now perform remote shooting and control the shots from your smart device, which means your camera\u2019s control functions such as the optical zoom, flash, self-timer, and shutter release can now be controlled through your compatible smart device. The images will then be saved to your camera.<\/p>\n<div id=\"attachment_6359\" style=\"width: 718px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.upgrademag.com\/web\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/Canon-Camera-Window-App.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-6359\" class=\"size-full wp-image-6359\" src=\"http:\/\/www.upgrademag.com\/web\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/Canon-Camera-Window-App.jpg\" alt=\"Canon Camera Window App\" width=\"708\" height=\"315\" srcset=\"http:\/\/www.upgrademag.com\/web\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/Canon-Camera-Window-App.jpg 708w, http:\/\/www.upgrademag.com\/web\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/09\/Canon-Camera-Window-App-300x133.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 708px) 100vw, 708px\" \/><\/a><p id=\"caption-attachment-6359\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><strong><em>Canon CameraWindow App<\/em><\/strong><\/p><\/div>\n<p>You can also have the option of adding a location name to your photos.

Simply touch the NFC icon on your camera and smart device.<\/p>\n<p>While the CameraWindow app allows you to make transferring and viewing photos more convenient, Canon iMage Gateway (CiG), on the other hand, is the perfect partner for you if you are constantly out and about.<\/p>\n<p>In just a snap, you can upload all those photos to some of the networks that we all love using \u2013 Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, Flickr, and Google Drive \u2013 just link your device to the network and CiG will do the rest.
