Quick Start Basics
The maximum range for shooting with the controller’s shutter button is around
10 meters (32.8'). The maximum range for viewing the image on the controller’s
monitor screen is around five meters (16.4').
If the connection is poor, the controller operation lamp will flash green and
(Communication status between camera and controller) will appear on the
monitor screen. Camera response may be slow if you perform an operation on the
controller while communication conditions are bad. If this happens, try adjusting the
orientation and the distance between the camera and controller.
Note the precautions below to ensure stable
communication between the camera and
controller.
Make sure nothing is blocking the gray areas
as shown in the illustrations.
Point the back of the controller at the
camera.
Make sure there are no obstacles in the path
between the camera and controller.
Sleep Mode
If you press [p] (Power) on the controller or if you do not perform any controller
operation for the time specified by the “Sleep” setting on the Setup menu (page 106)
while there is a Bluetooth wireless technology connection between the camera and
controller, the camera and controller will enter a sleep state. The operation lamp
slowly flashes green while the camera is in the sleep mode. To restore the controller
display, press any controller button. A low-power Bluetooth wireless technology
connection between the camera and controller is maintained even while they are in
the sleep mode, so operation is quickly enabled when you are ready to use the
camera and controller.
If the distance between the camera and controller becomes to great or if
communication conditions become bad while the camera is in the sleep mode, the
connection may be dropped between them.
