Canon W-EI Wifi Adapter

Has anyone purchased the wifi adapter for the 7D2 or 5DS/5DSR? If so, did you preorder? How long did it take before you received it? I pre-ordered this from B&H last month and am still waiting. It isn't B&H's fault, but rather Canon's. Is this typical of new items from Canon for preorders? Thank you for any information

If Canon hasn't shipped yet, you are just going to have to be patient.

I ordered mine back in the beginning of September from B&H and received it November 4th.

So what do you think ? Is it worth it?

Okay, this helps. I won't be waiting daily for the shipping email. :). Thank you, this is much appreciated!

I agree, and actually, I can be very patient--I just wanted to know if I should be waiting daily with baited breath. 😉

Great question, however, for the price (B&H has it $10 cheaper than Canon), I can wait. 🙂

Don't know about the Canon, but I bought a Nikon wifi adapter which worked okay. However, I then put the Mobi Eye-fi into the camera and that worked perfectly without having an external adapter to carry around.

Thanks, if it takes too long I will definitely look into this!

Happy Thanksgiving!🍁🦃

Got mine a week ago. Very impressed with versatility and remote shooting using iPad is great. The only drawback is it is a a bit fiddly to set up each time I wish to use it with the 7D MkII. Maybe I will see if I can do something in My Menu. Worth the £39.99.
