What do we know about Nikon's SnapBridge technology? It's in the D500 and D5.
Here's Nikon's YouTube video about it:

I think it is very interesting to be able to send images via Bluetooth automatically to your phone or laptop, with the camera tech supposedly not using up too much power.
Does Canon have anything like this? Would you like something like this in the 1DX, 5D, 7D etc?
I would love to know whether you are able to shoot only in RAW to the card but get jpegs sent to the phone? How flexible is it? Can those images be saved directly and automatically to the external storage of your phone etc with a named/dated folder? What distances can the files travel.
What do you think?

SnapBridge will be a standard feature in almost every new Nikon camera from 2016 onwards.
SnapBridge via Bluetooth low energy enables continuous and immediate transfer of images from the camera to a smart device as they are captured in real-time. This is achieved automatically without a need to activate image transfer from the camera, while also keeping power consumption low for both. Users can also continue to enjoy mobile internet connectivity during image transfer, allowing them to check their e-mail or access social media even as their photographs are being synced between the devices.
