After you assign your Rebel T6 a Wi-Fi name, follow these instructions to connect your camera to your phone or tablet for file transfer. Note that these steps relate to transferring to a device that doesn’t offer NFC connectivity.
1. On the camera, open Setup Menu 3 and choose Wi-Fi Function, located just below the Wi-Fi/NFC option.
The next screen offers two icons: one that looks like a phone and one that looks like a globe.
2. Highlight the phone icon and press Set.
Now you see the Connection Method screen, which offers two options: Easy Connection and Select a Network.
3. Choose Easy Connection, press Set to highlight OK, and press Set again.
On the resulting screen, the camera displays the nickname that you assigned your camera. You also see an encryption key, a string of characters that serve as the password to your camera’s Wi-Fi network.
4. On your smartphone or tablet, enable Wi-Fi and then open the wireless settings screen.
Your camera’s nickname should appear on the list of available Wi-Fi connections.
5. Select the camera from the list of networks and, when prompted for a password, enter the encryption key shown on the camera monitor.
6. On your phone or tablet, start the Canon Camera Connect app.
If all the planets are in alignment, a screen should appear on your device that asks you to select the camera to finalize the connection.
7. On the camera, press DISP to specify which images you want to access.
You can select All Images, images from just the past few days, images assigned a particular rating, or a specific file-number range. If you choose anything but All Images, you can then set parameters for the file selection.
8. After selecting the types of images you want to access, press the Set button as needed to exit the camera screens. Download File PDF
