Canon Wireless Adapters

These units enable the transfer of image data from EOS digital SLR cameras through a wireless or wired network to an ftp server.

WFT-E1/E1A is compatible with EOS-1Ds Mark II, EOS-1D Mark II N, EOS 5D and EOS 30D. (EOS-1D Mark II and EOS 20D may require firmware update to enable Wireless LAN functionality).

WFT-E2/E2A is dedicated to the EOS-1D Mark III and gets its power from the camera and the antenna is embedded. The result is a decrease in weight from 165g to 75g and a similar decrease in size.

WFT-E3/E3A is dedicated to the EOS-40D
