Camera’s Wireless Functions” (P. 357)
Wireless transmissions are vulnerable to interception by third parties. Use wireless features with this
in mind.
The wireless transceiver is located in the camera grip. Keep it as far away as practicable from metal
objects.
When transporting the camera in a bag or other container, be aware that the contents of the
container or the materials of which it is constructed may interfere with wireless transmissions, which
can prevent the camera connecting to a smartphone.
Wi‑Fi connections increase the drain on the batteries. The connection may be lost during use if the
batteries are low.
Devices such as microwave ovens and cordless phones that generate radio-frequency emissions,
magnetic fields, or static electricity may slow or otherwise interfere with wireless data transmission.
Some wireless LAN features are unavailable when the memory card write-protect switch is in the
“LOCK” position.
