Inserting a prepared Eye-Fi card enables automatic wireless transfer of
images to a computer or uploading to a photo-sharing website.
Images are transferred by the Eye-Fi card. Refer to the card’s user manual
or contact the manufacturer for instructions on preparing and using cards or
resolving transfer problems.
•
When using an Eye-Fi card, keep the following points in mind.
-
Cards may continue to transmit radio waves even when [Eye-Fi
trans.] is set to [Disable] (

entering hospitals, aircraft, or other areas where transmission is
prohibited.
-
When troubleshooting image transfer issues, check the card and
computer settings. For details, refer to the card’s user manual.
-
Poor Eye-Fi connections may cause image transfer to take a long
time, and transfer may be interrupted in some cases.
-
Eye-Fi cards may become hot, due to their transfer functions.
-
Battery power will be consumed faster than in normal use.
-
Camera operation may become sluggish. To resolve this, try
setting [Eye-Fi trans.] to [Disable].
Connection status of Eye-Fi cards in the camera can be checked on the
shooting screen (in regular information display mode) or playback screen (in
