4. Use the [+] and [–] buttons to move the pointer to the receive icon.

• As soon as you perform the above step, all of the buttons and con-

trols on the other camera become disabled.

5. After you make the setting you want, press the shutter button

again.

• Pressing the shutter button receives the selected image from the

other camera.

* You can receive only one image at a time. To send more images,

repeat steps 2 through 5.

Important!

Never disconnect the cable, turn power off, or change the function
switch setting while a data communication operation is in progress.
Doing so can damage the camera.

Connecting to a Computer using a Connection
Kit

Optionally available personal computer connection kits are available
to allow transfer of digital data with a personal computer. Each kit
includes special connecting cables, and software, and makes it pos-
sible to send images from the camera to a personal computer and
vice versa. Images are transferred as digital data, which minimizes
loss of image quality.

For details on connecting to your computer and how to use the soft-
ware, see the user documentation that comes with the connection kit.
