Network functions and connection types
To be able to use the following function networks, you will need to connect a commercially available Wi-Fi or
Ethernet adapter* to the camera's USB terminal. For more details about Wi-Fi or Ethernet adapters tested for
use with the camera, visit your local Canon website.
* A Type-C (male) to Type-A (female) adapter/cable that is compatible with the same speed standard as the network adapter is
necessary when using a network adapter with a Type-A connector.

Before using the network functions
• The instructions in this chapter assume you already have a correctly configured and working network and
correctly configured network device(s). If necessary, refer to the documentation provided with the network
devices you plan to use.
• Configuring the network settings requires adequate knowledge about configuring and using wired (Ethernet)
and/or wireless (Wi-Fi) networks. Canon cannot provide support regarding network configurations.
IMPORTANT
• Canon shall not be liable for any loss of data or damage resulting from incorrect network configuration or
settings. Additionally, Canon shall not be liable for any loss or damage caused by the use of network functions.
• Avoid using open networks or networks without sufficiently strong security settings. Using an unprotected
network can expose your data to monitoring by unauthorized third parties.
NOTES
• Do not open the card compartment cover while using network functions.
• Do not place cables connected to the camera's HDMI OUT terminal, INPUT terminals or MIC terminal near the
Wi-Fi adapter (commercially available). Doing so may negatively affect the wireless communication or the
audio recorded.
• Connecting devices to the camera's USB terminal:
- When using a terminal converter or adapter cable, make sure to connect the converter to the Wi-Fi or
Ethernet adapter before connecting both to the camera's USB terminal. If you plug in the converter or
adapter cable to the terminal alone and only then connect the network adapter, it will not be recognized by
the camera.
- Do not connect to the camera devices other than Wi-Fi or Ethernet adapters tested for use with the camera
or the GP-E2 GPS Receiver.
