Shooting Remotely
As you check a shooting screen on your smartphone, you can use it to 
shoot remotely.
1 Secure the camera.
zzOnce remote shooting begins, the 
camera lens will come out. Lens motion 
from zooming may also move the camera 
out of position. Keep the camera still by 
mounting it on a tripod or taking other 
measures.
2 Connect the camera and 
smartphone	(=  11 5).
zzIn the privacy settings (=  127, 131), 
choose [Yes].
3 Choose remote shooting.
zzIn CameraWindow ( =  11 9) on the 
smartphone, choose remote shooting.
zzThe camera lens will come out. Do not 
press near the lens, and make sure no 
objects will obstruct it.
zzOnce the camera is ready for remote 
shooting, a live image from the camera 
will be displayed on the smartphone.
zzAt this time, a message is displayed on 
the camera, and all operations except 
pressing the power button are disabled.
Geotagging Images on the Camera
GPS data recorded on a smartphone using the dedicated CameraWindow 
application ( =  11 9) 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. (See “Setting the Date and Time” (=  14).) 
Additionally, in [Time Zone] (=  147), specify any shooting 
destinations that are in other time zones.
•	 The smartphone you will use for geotagging must be authorized to 
view the images on the camera ( =
  127, 131).
•	 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.

dial to choose [OK], and then press the 
 button.
zzWhen formatting is finished, [Memory 
card formatting complete] is displayed.

completely. When transferring or disposing of memory cards, take 
steps to protect personal information if necessary, as by physically 
destroying cards.
•	 The total card capacity indicated on the formatting screen may be less t\
han 
the advertised capacity.

 is 
displayed, the camera is not working correctly, card image reading/writing is 
slower, continuous shooting is slower, or movie recording suddenly stops.

•	 You can cancel low-level formatting in progress by choosing [Stop]. In th\
is 
case, all data will be erased, but the memory card can be used normally.
