Canon&#8217;s Wireless File Transmitter units naturally enable the wireless beaming of pictures from camera to computer, but this latest generation adds some new functionality. 802.11a joins the b and g modes found on earlier models, and once connected the camera can act as an FTP site (available over the internet, if you wish), can beam a realtime preview image to a connected computer, act as a <a href=\"http:\/\/www.engadget.com\/tag\/dlna\">DLNA<\/a> server, and can even synchronize itself with up to 10 &#8220;slave&#8221; cameras that all fire at the same time. Naturally this kind of tech won&#8217;t come cheap, with the 5D&#8217;s WFT-E4 II A and 7D&#8217;s WFT-E5A costing $699 (no price yet for the 1D Mark IV&#8217;s WFT-E2 II A) and yes, rather sadly none are compatible with each other. Did you really think it&#8217;d be any other way?<\/div>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.engadget.com\/2010\/01\/07\/canon-announces-new-wireless-file-transmitter-units-for-latest-p\/\">Canon announces new Wireless File Transmitter units for latest pro models, enables DSLR hive-minding<\/a> originally appeared on <a href=\"http:\/\/www.engadget.com\">Engadget<\/a> on Thu, 07 Jan 2010 10:31:00 EST.
