Canon to Box live

Tether your Canon to your phone over USB or Wi-Fi and deliver every shot straight to Box the instant you press the shutter — no laptop, no SD-card import. Enterprise-grade storage with the governance IT already approved.

How to live-upload Canon photos to Box

Connect your Canon to your phone and every shot lands in Box live as you shoot. Here's the full setup, start to finish:

  1. 1

    Connect your Canon

    Connect over USB with the camera set to PC/tether mode for the most reliable, fastest link. Or go wireless over the camera's Wi-Fi (EOS bodies broadcast their own network) or a shared network. On a first wireless connection, approve the link on the camera body when prompted.

  2. 2

    Connect Box

    Connects via Box OAuth. Pick where photos should land — per-session folders inside any Box folder you choose — retention, sharing, and audit controls intact.

  3. 3

    Shoot as normal

    Every frame your Canon captures is detected and downloaded at full resolution while you keep shooting — JPEG, or RAW on Pro.

  4. 4

    Photos deliver to Box

    Each photo uploads from your phone once and lands in Box live, seconds after the shutter — and fans out to any other destinations on the session too (Pro).
