Sending Images
Images sent from the camera are automatically saved to the computer.
If the computer that you intend to send images to is turned off, the images 
will be stored temporarily on the CANON iMAGE GATEWAY server. Stored 
images are regularly erased, so make sure to turn on the computer and 
save the images.
zzFollow the steps in “Connecting to WPS-
Compatible Access Points” (=  94) to 
choose [].
zzOnce the connection is established, the 
images are sent.
zzWhen the images have been sent 
successfully to the CANON iMAGE 
GATEWAY server, [
] is displayed on 
the screen.
zzImages are automatically saved to the 
computer when you turn it on.
zzImages are automatically sent to Web 
services from the CANON iMAGE 
GATEWAY server, even if the computer 
is off.
•	 When sending images, you should use a fully charged battery pack 
or an AC adapter kit (sold separately, =
  120).
•	 Even if images were imported to the computer through a different method, any 
images not sent to the computer via CANON iMAGE GATEWAY will be sent to 
the computer.
•	 Sending is faster when the destination is a computer on the same network\
 as 
the camera, because images are sent via the access point instead of CANO\
N 
iMAGE GATEWAY. Note that images stored on the computer are sent to 
CANON iMAGE GATEWAY, so the computer must be connected to the Internet.
Geotagging Images on the Camera
GPS data recorded on a smartphone using the dedicated CameraWindow 
application ( =  89) can be added to images on the camera. Images are 
tagged with information including the latitude, longitude, and elevation\
.
•	Before shooting, make sure the date and time and your home time 
zone are set correctly. (See “Setting the Date and Time” (=
  12).) 
Additionally, in [Time Zone] (=  11 3 ), specify any shooting 
destinations that are in other time zones.
•	 The smartphone you will use for geotagging must be authorized to 
view the images on the camera ( =
  96, 99).
•	 Others may be able to locate or identify you by using location data 
in your geotagged still images or movies. Be careful when sharing 
these images with others, as when posting images online where 
many others can view them.
