— NFC technology is designed for wireless communication over short distances (up to 10 cm). Specific ways to use it in cameras may be different. So, in some cameras, NFC is responsible for automatically connecting to a smartphone or tablet via Wi-Fi: just bring an NFC-compatible gadget to the camera and the devices “recognize” each other and connect automatically. In other models, NFC is used in a similar way to automatically transfer selected images to an external device (moreover, data can be transferred both via Wi-Fi and directly via the NFC channel). Anyway, such equipment expands the "wireless" capabilities of the camera.
