Camera FTP tethering

Also called: camera-to-cloud, wireless FTP upload

Camera FTP tethering sends photos from a camera to an online gallery over Wi-Fi as they are shot, using the FTP settings built into the camera or its transmitter.

Traditional tethering ties the camera to a laptop with a cable. FTP tethering removes the laptop: the camera connects to Wi-Fi and pushes each frame to a server using FTPS credentials.

For events this means photos appear in the gallery, and on a live photo wall, within a minute or two of being taken, and they are face-indexed automatically so guest search stays current.

Pixeva supports Sony, Canon, Nikon, and Fuji bodies with Wi-Fi FTP, de-duplicates incoming frames, and preserves EXIF metadata.
