Eyepiece cover
When shooting without looking through the viewfinder, attach the eyepiece cover to the
viewfinder so that light does not enter the viewfinder. Attach the eyepiece cover after removing
the eyecup as illustrated. The same applies when replacing with an optional eyecup.
Using the remote control
By using the optional remote control (RM-1), you can take a picture with yourself in it or a night
scene without touching the camera. The camera can be set to release the shutter either right
away or 2 seconds after the shutter button on the remote control is pressed. Bulb shooting is
also possible when using the optional remote control.
Mount the camera securely on a tripod, point the remote
control at the remote control receiver on the camera and press
the shutter button on the remote control.
• When <0s is selected:
The focus and exposure are locked, the remote control lamp
blinks and the picture is taken.
• When <2s is selected:
The focus and exposure are locked, the remote control lamp
blinks, then after approximately 2 seconds the picture is taken.
Transmitted signal effective area
Point the remote control at the remote control receiver of the
camera within the effective area as shown below. Powerful lighting
such as direct sunlight, fluorescent light or devices emitting
electrical or radio waves could narrow the effective area.
x Notes
• Do not press the shutter button while standing in front of the camera; this could result in the
subject being out of focus since focusing is performed when the shutter button is pressed
halfway.
