Fun and Function Meet in New Live Streaming
Live Streaming
Live Streaming is a new function of the VIXIA HF R40 camcorder's built-in Wi-Fi®. It allows you to receive the live video and sound that your camcorder is recording from a remote location on your iOS® or Android device*, using the free Canon CameraAccess app†. You can also remotely control camcorder functions including start/stop and zoom, and even access information about remaining battery charge, recordable time, zoom position and more. The applications are endless: you can monitor babies and pets, capture wildlife videos remotely without disturbing the scene, create perfect self-videos and lots more.
