Usage Tips Vol.5

Sorting rules’ Subject category is the perfect way to collect what you love—and share albums effortlessly!

Whether in everyday life or on a themed photo walk, when you stumble upon something you love, you can’t help but press the shutter, right?

Create Sorting rules for your favorites with [Subject category] in image.canon. Then, every time you upload from your Canon camera, image.canon automatically finds and picks out photos that match what you love.
Apply the same rule to Auto Transfer to Google Photos, and albums come together in no time.
