NFC Function

What is NFC?

NFC (Near Field Communication) is a function that can exchange information by simply bringing two NFC-enabled devices close together. This camera uses the NFC function to exchange information regarding wireless connections.

Using an NFC-enabled smartphone or Connect Station enables you to do the following:

 Touch a smartphone to the camera to easily connect them wirelessly

(p.29).

 While playing back images on the camera, touch a smartphone to

the camera to send a captured image to the smartphone (p.93).

 Hold the camera close to Connect Station (sold separately) to easily

connect them wirelessly (p.42).

When using the NFC function, follow the steps below to set the camera’s NFC setting.

Select [Wi-Fi/NFC].

Add [X] to [Allow NFC

connections].

 Displayed when [Wi-Fi/NFC] is set to

[Enable].

 Press the <B> button to add or

remove [X]. Add [X], then press <0>.

 When a nickname (for identification)

is not registered, a registration screen is displayed (p.14).

NFC Function

NFC Function Cautions

 This camera cannot be connected to other NFC-enabled cameras or

printers using the NFC function.

 A connection cannot be established using the NFC function while

shooting with the camera, when there is no card, when the LCD monitor is closed with the screen facing inward, or while the camera is connected to another device with an interface cable.

 To connect the camera to a smartphone using the NFC function, the

smartphone’s Wi-Fi and NFC functions must be enabled.

A connection can be established even when the camera’s power is in the auto power off state. However, if a connection cannot be established, cancel auto power off, then establish a connection.

When establishing wireless communications using the NFC function, see the following pages.

Connecting to a smartphone wirelessly: page 29* Sending images to a smartphone: page 93* Connecting to Connect Station: page 42

* When connecting to a smartphone, see pages 24 and 28 as well.

Preparation for Smartphones

To use [q] (Connect to smartphone), a smartphone on which iOS or Android is installed is necessary. In addition, the dedicated application Camera Connect (free of charge) must be installed on the smartphone.

 Camera Connect can be downloaded from the App Store or Google

Play.

 For the operating system versions supported by Camera Connect,

refer to the download site of Camera Connect.

 When an NFC-enabled smartphone is touched to the camera before

installing Camera Connect, the download screen of Camera Connect will be displayed on the smartphone.

 Interface or functions of the camera and Camera Connect are

subject to change for firmware update of the camera or application update of Camera Connect, iOS, Android, etc. In such a case, features of the camera or Camera Connect may differ from sample screens or operation instructions in this manual.
