If your wireless controller isn’t working:

Make sure the camera and the wireless controller are both set to the same mode. Check the mode the camera is set to by pushing any button other than the REMOTE SET button on the wireless controller. The camera’s mode appears in purple for about 4 seconds. Set the wireless controller’s mode accordingly by pressing the aforementioned button combinations. 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.
