Canon PowerShot SX620 HS - Wireless Connection with an Android Device

[@Eman-wj8gq]

I've had the SX610HS for so long now it's got a crack screen lens guard doesn't close I've dropped it taken it backpacking, rock climbing city travels and it still takes good quality pictures. It is extremely durable affordable and quality is not lacking great camera.

Worked perfect for my SX620HS camera and my Samsung J7. Download the Canon Camera Connect app from the Play Store, and it took about 3 minutes to have all my photos transferred from my camera to my phone.

[@madebymarky8170]

Can you transfer a video file also?? Or applicable only for transferring photo?

[@truth4believers]

@@madebymarky8170 videos can also be transferred the same way as photos

[@neighborsfromhell4069]

when i am connected to the app and i do not see the option to take a video recording, only shooting photos. How do you record videos using the APP?

[@denke42]

Worthless to me. Does not work for my camera (SX620 HS), though the help page for the camera links to it. Halfway through, it shows a Waiting to connect screen, with access point info for the camera. No such screen on my camera. Insists on connecting through WiFi router.

I had a problem connecting, and from the looks from the comments of it it seems sx620 hs model doesn't work connect as well as the model as you used. The message for that is suppose to show Connect Target device screen, does not appear. No matter how many times you try it's not there. I have reset the camera, I have deleted the app and reinstalled it. I have fully charged the camera and phone. It doesn't work.

[@rockinspect]

This video is missing at least 4 of the screens that popped up during the attempt. Has anyone found a video that actually relates to connecting to an android?

Is it possible to connect this camera to a monitor to create a live feed of what your camera is currently looking at? I want to make a video, but I need to make sure that I'm positioned in the right place before I record.

[@CanonUSASupport]

Hi there! While it is possible to connect the PowerShot SX620 HS to a monitor or TV with an HDMI cable, it only works for the purposes of playback of already recording images and video. We hope this answers your question!

[@singsongsign]

What is the cheapest Canon camera that will allow me to get a live feed from a monitor?

[@roncrites]

Can you do this on a IPhone

[@CanonUSASupport]

Hi, Ron! You sure can! Find all our apps at canon.us/apps

[@CanonUSASupport]

Hi, Ahmed! Photos and videos are sent over in their original file formats. Once they're on your device, you can convert them if you choose to do so. Hope this helps!

[@mendezcampos113]

What is the Bluetooth for

[@CanonUSASupport]

Hi, Mendez! Your PowerShot SX620 HS can communicate wirelessly with other devices via Wi-Fi. This model doesn't not offer Bluetooth connectivity. Hope this helps!

[@emanuel9361]

I can´t record videos with this app any alternatives ?

[@CanonUSASupport]

Hi, Nelo! For video, we recommend recording the video to the camera's memory card first and then using the Canon Camera Connect app to transfer the video to your mobile device. Hope this helps!

[@emanuel9361]

[@PerWigren]

I'm laughing at the word "effortlessly". So many clicks, so many steps, so unintuitive, so alien to the Android design guidelines. A real UX nightmare. When paired with Bluetooth I should be able to click the photo icon from within any Android app (Facebook, WhatsApp, GMail, etc), select the Canon camera's gallery, select picture and press "OK" and it will be shared. Requiring extra steps for simple picture sharing is so outdated, although I do appreciate the ability to batch import full size images over local wifi.

[@georgerx4303]

what about videos?

[@CanonUSASupport]

Hi George! Video can indeed be uploaded to your smartphone using the Camera Connect app. We hope this helps!
