OTHER FUNCTIONS Remote Control Operation (optional)-continued Check points • Use a tripod or place the camera on a stable surface before using the remote control. • When you are taking pictures but not looking through the viewfinder, cover the eyepiece with the supplied eyepiece cap DK-5 (page 82) or with your hand before pressing the shutter release button to prevent interference from stray light and achieve correct exposure. • The shooting distance for remote control operation is within 5m directly in front of the camera. To shoot beyond the shooting distance of the remote control, use the self-timer (page 40). Remote control operation cannot be performed when the camera has extreme backlighting. Change the camera position in this case. • If the shutter cannot be released with the remote control, change the battery inside the remote control unit (page 87). (The life of the battery inside the remote control unit is approx. 5 years.) • Use one 3V CR2025 lithium battery in the remote control unit. Long Time (Time) exposure with remote control When the camera is set to Long Time (Time) exposure (page 62), pressing the remote control's shutter release button opens the camera's shutter and pressing the shutter release button again closes the shutter. This function is useful for shooting nighttime scenes or stars. (Use of a tripod is recommended.) Self-timer lamp flickers slightly once every 2 sec. during Time exposure. • Changing battery inside the remote control unit 1 While keeping the battery holder release lever pressed as the arrow on the remote control unit indicates to release the lock, pull out the battery holder from the remote control unit. 2 Remove the used battery. 3 Insert a new CR2025 3V lithium battery with ´ side facing up. 4 Insert the battery holder until it clicks shut.
