Camera setup guide

Camera setup guide

Other cameras

Any camera or desktop FTP client (FileZilla, curl).

Before you start

  • A camera with FTP transfer, or a computer with the files you want to upload
  • An internet connection
  • Your Rawback FTP username and a credential password (created on the FTP page)

Rawback accepts uploads over SFTP, FTPS and plain FTP. If your camera isn't covered by a dedicated guide, or you'd rather upload from a computer, the settings below work everywhere.

Choose a protocol

SFTP — most secure (port 2222)

Best choice when your camera or client supports it. Encrypted over SSH. Host ftp.rawback.app, port 2222.

FTPS — secure FTP (port 23213)

FTP over TLS, widely supported by cameras. Enable “explicit TLS / require SSL”. Host ftp.rawback.app, port 23213.

FTP — plain (port 23212)

Only use on a trusted network — credentials are sent unencrypted. Host ftp.rawback.app, port 23212.

Tips that fix most problems

Enable passive (PASV) mode, leave the remote folder as the default root /, and make sure the device can reach the public internet.

Upload with FileZilla

Open the Site Manager

In FileZilla choose File → Site Manager → New Site.

Enter the connection

Set Protocol to SFTP (or FTP with “Require explicit FTP over TLS”), Host to ftp.rawback.app, and the matching port from above.

Log in and upload

Use Normal logon, enter your Rawback username and credential password, connect, then drag your photos into the remote pane.

Upload from the command line

Replace FILENAME.raw with your file and PASSWORD with your credential password:

# FTPS (recommended)
curl -T ./FILENAME.raw --ssl-reqd \
  "ftp://your-username:[email protected]:23213/"

# Plain FTP
curl -T ./FILENAME.raw \
  "ftp://your-username:[email protected]:23212/"
