Notes on the Wireless Twin Camera function
The performance of the Wireless Twin Camera function varies depending on the surrounding radio 
wave conditions. Since the human body blocks radio waves, it is  also influenced by how crowded 
the area is.
∫ Recording tips
≥Use your Wireless Sub Camera in a position where as much of it as possible can be seen from 
the position of this unit.
≥ When the signal between this unit and the Wireless Sub Camera w eakens, a warning icon 
appears. In such a case, close the distance between them.
≥ We recommend that you attach a tripod to this unit when recordi ng.
∫When using a smartphone as a Wireless Sub Camera
≥The Wireless Twin Camera function commands the smartphone to pr ocess images and transmit 
Wi-Fi signals.
≥ Image processing performance, Wi-Fi signal transmission perform ance, and the antenna location 
vary depending on the smartphone.
≥ The Sub Window’s image, which is transmitted from the smartphon e, is displayed with a slight 
delay compared to the Main camera’s image.
≥ Depending on the device and environment, movement in the image  transmitted from the 
smartphone may not look smooth or may look as if frames were mi ssed. This is particularly the 
case with vertical orientation, which increases the smartphone’ s processing burden.
≥For information on the setup of your smartphone, refer to its o perating instructions.
≥ Please also refer to “If the Wi-Fi connection cannot be establi shed”. (l184 )
Keep the following points in mind when using a smartphone as a 
Wireless Twin Camera:
≥ We recommend that you use an Android device with a Quad Core or higher CPU or the latest 
iOS device.
≥ We recommend that you look at the image transmitted from your s martphone in advance to 
check the optimal recording distance for the smartphone, the ea siest way to hold it, and other 
recording conditions.
≥ We recommend that you turn off the smartphone’s GPS and Bluetooth functions, which may 
affect the Wireless Sub Camera’s image.
≥ We recommend that you close as many other applications as possi ble.
≥ Recording consumes a large amount of battery power. When recording for a long period of 
time, pay attention to the remaining battery power.
