Precautions when Shooting with RemoteCapture
• The camera’s shooting settings cannot be set from RemoteCapture. They must be
set on the camera.
• If your computer is set to go into standby mode, there is no guarantee that
RemoteCapture will continue to function after the computer has entered standby
mode. Always turn off the standby function before you start shooting with
RemoteCapture.
• If the camera is set for “mirror lockup” shooting, the shutter will activate
approximately two seconds after the release button is clicked in RemoteCapture.
• The camera’s auto power save setting is disabled while connected to
RemoteCapture, and the power remains on until manually turned off. You are
recommended to power the camera with a household power source while it is
connected.
• Please note that the camera will not be able to shoot at the specified interval if it is
shorter than the time required to send the image and save it on the computer.
Changing the Save Location and Other Preferences
The Preferences dialog can be opened by clicking the RemoteCapture [File] menu
and selecting [Preferences]. This dialog can be used to change the save location
and settings.
Selects whether the image is saved only on
the computer or on the camera’s CF card too.
Sets the image file prefix. If the prefix is set
to [Capture], for example, the first image will
be named [Capture_00001.jpg] and
successive images will have higher numbers.
Sets the folder in which the image file is
saved.
Selects a drive on the computer.
