    I am a fairly new user of an EOS-800D. Can I upload photos that I have taken to my PC via WiFi, or do I have to use a USB cable? It would be much simpler to use WiFi. If this is possible, how do I set it up?

    Thanks - Rowan

    The answer to your question is yes.

    Did you review the manuals that came with your camera? Canon has all the features listed and posted in the manuals plus you can also find them online.

    The second one is the WiFi manual which allows you to make a wifi hotspot out of the camera, connect the computer to it, and then use the provided EOS utility software to download the images. Personally I find USB or a card reader to be easier.
