The remote control should be operated within the range shown. The remote control signal can be blocked if the zoom lens is extended, or an accessory such as the lens hood, or a wide-angle or telephoto converter is attached. Backlight, and fluorescent or bright lighting may prevent the remote control from working.

The self-timer lamp blinks to indicate the camera has received a signal from the remote control unit.
