Using an Eye-Fi Card

Before using an Eye-Fi card, always confirm that local use is permitted (p. 3).

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] (p. 217). Remove the Eye-Fi card before 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 wireless 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 simple information display mode).
