Shooting Remotely

shoot remotely.

from zooming may also move the camera

out of position. Keep the camera still by

mounting it on a tripod or taking other

measures.

The camera lens will come out. Do not

press near the lens, and make sure no

objects will obstruct it.

Once the camera is ready for remote

shooting, a live image from the camera

will be displayed on the smartphone.

At this time, a message is displayed

on the camera, and all operations

except pressing the ON/OFF button are

disabled.

Geotagging Images on the Camera

GPS data recorded on a smartphone using the dedicated Camera

Connect application can be added to images on the camera. Images are

tagged with information including the latitude, longitude, and elevation.

Before shooting, make sure the date and time and your home
time zone are set correctly, as described in “Setting the Date and
Time” (= 20).
Also follow the steps in “World Clock” (= 139)
to specify any shooting destinations in other time zones.

Others may be able to locate or identify you by using location data
in your geotagged still images or movies. Be careful when sharing
these images with others, as when posting images online where
many others can view them.
