If the wireless controller still doesn’t work, change the batteries.

•The mode the camera is set to also appears for 4 seconds when you turn the power on.

Turning off the tally lamp

The tally lamp lets you know that the camera is recording, receiving signals from the wireless controller or counting down for the self-timer. However, its flashing may be reflected into the lens during close-up recording, or when recording through glass.

You may therefore decide to turn it off.
