Wi-Fi Functions

This chapter contains information about how to operate the

Wi-Fi functions of your camcorder, starting with the Wi-Fi net-

work setup needed to add your camcorder to an existing

Wi-Fi network.

Introduction to Wi-Fi

The camcorder's Wi-Fi functions allow you to send files wirelessly,

which means that you will not need to fuss with cables. You can wire-

lessly connect the camcorder to a Wi-Fi network (wireless LAN) using

an access point (commonly referred to as infrastructure mode) or

directly to an iOS device* without using a wireless access point (com-

monly referred to as ad hoc mode). The steps you will perform will

depend on how you plan to use your recordings. Refer to Glossary

(A 173) for a definition of the frequently used terms in this text.

* "iOS device" is used in this text to collectively refer to Wi-Fi-enabled iOS devices.

Wi-Fi connection

Infrastructure mode

Connect the camcorder to an access point on a Wi-Fi network (A 157). Use this

connection if you plan to save your recordings on a computer or FTP server (A 162) and

then upload videos to YouTube and Facebook (A 166).
