    Do ANY Digital Camcorders come with Wi-FI?

    Don't normally venture into this side of the forum (sold my digital camera yonks ago when I was skint!), but google is fruitless on this one.

    I've been tasked with trying to find a solution for my company to monitor packing of trailers in China to be viewed in the UK. Was thinking of having a digital camcorder that could record it and send over wifi so it could then be transmitted to an FTP server or somewhere else. However, cant find any camcorders with wifi capabilities. Anyone know if these are out yet, or would we have to settle for doing this some other way?!

    Loads of camera have Wifi but I've never heard of Wifi on Camcorder. Due to the high bandwith load perhaps ?

    Web cams arent really portable, or of a good enough quality (it would be used as a quality control device in part, so needs to be detailed and allow rotation around fairly large components). Saying that, may have to compromise somewhere, as I think I am ahead of technology in my thinking. :/

    Cheers anyway

    you could hook up a digital camera to a laptop with a wireless connection and then record onto that which in turn could have someone else on a workstation grabbing the footage..
