Browser Remote: Controlling the Camcorder from a Network
Device
Using a camera access point connection, in which the camcorder itself acts as an access point, you can
connect a device such as a smartphone (such connected devices are hereafter referred to as "network
devices"). You can then control the camcorder remotely from the network device's Web browser using the
Browser Remote application. Browser Remote lets you monitor the image through live view, record clips and
photos, and remotely control the shutter speed, gain and other settings. You can also check the recording
media, remaining recording time, time code, etc.
* For details about compatible devices, operating systems, Web browsers, etc., please visit your local Canon Web site.
Operating modes:
Setting Up Browser Remote
You can set a unique camcorder identification code and designate the port that the Browser Remote application
should use when accessing the camcorder through network. The port number (HTTP protocol) used by Browser
Remote is usually set to port 80, but you can change it if necessary. The camcorder ID will appear on the
Browser Remote screen, making it easy to identify which camcorder the application is controlling in case of a
