Q: Questiondo i need wifi to connect remote to the camera

Asked 7 years ago by tonyx.

• A:Answer If you are connecting your phone as a remote then yes it does require wifi I'm not sure if the connection type is Bluetooth or private wifi for the included remote. I can tell you that the included remote works much better than the wifi connection to a phone. The phone keeps dropping out even when you are standing right next to it.
