<p>Just got this 2nd hand 6D and it works fine.<br>

However the wifi setting is for an iphone from the previous owner.</p>

<p>I have clicked enable wifi but the next screens show the previous settings.</p>

<p>I have downloaded the EOS android app to my phone.<br>

So, how do I enable or re-set ifi on my phone and camera please ?</p>

<p>I would to a total reset of all camera settings to factory spec and set CF and settings from scratch. If the previous owner's Wi-Fi settings are there, it's likely his fav remapped buttons, drive sensitivity, copyright/name in the EXIF data are still set.</p>

<p>I found the Wi-Fi easy to pair with my iPhone but a grand PITA on a computer. Wi-Fi is a real battery burner too...</p>

Sometimes the light’s all shining on me. Other times I can barely see.

<p>The 6D WiFi can be handy, I use mine with both my Galaxy S2 phone and even wireless remote shooting with the computer using the EOS software through a wireless router. WiFi can quickly drain your battery though, so I recommend extra batteries and remembering to turn off the feature when not using it.</p>

<p>Good link from Jim. Explaining all that in a post would have been very long.</p>

 

Cheers, Mark
