Uploading Images
Press the
button to view pictures on the
memory card. Display the first picture to be sent
in single-image playback or highlight it in the
thumbnail list.
Press the center of the multi selector while pressing the button. The image will be marked with
a white “send” icon and transmission will begin
immediately. During upload, images are marked
with a green “sending” icon. Repeat this process
to send additional images (pictures will be sent in
the order selected).
Images that have been successfully uploaded are
marked with a blue “sent” icon. Images can be resent by pressing the center of the multi selector
while pressing the button to change the blue
“sent” icon to a white “send” icon.
During Upload
Do not remove the memory card or disconnect the Ethernet cable during upload.
File Names
If the destination folder on an ftp server contains files with the same names as images selected for upload, the files on the server will be replaced by the images uploaded from the camera. Selecting On for Custom Setting d6 (File No. Sequence) during shooting will prevent
the camera from creating files with duplicate file names. When uploading files from multiple
cameras to the same server, assign each camera its own folder.
Loss of Signal
Transmission may be interrupted if the signal is lost ( 25). Transmission can be resumed by
turning the camera off and then on again, activating the camera exposure meters, or selecting On for Wireless transmitter > Wireless LAN system once the signal is restored.
23
Interrupting Transmission
To cancel transmission of images marked with a white “send” icon or green “sending” icon, select the images during playback and press the center of the multi selector while pressing the button. The icon will be removed. Any of the following
actions will also interrupt transmission:
• Turning the camera off
• Choosing Off in the Wireless transmitter > Wireless LAN system menu
• Selecting Yes for Wireless transmitter > Settings > Deselect all
Transfer Status
During playback, the status of images selected for uploaded is shown as follows:
: “Send”
Images that have been selected for upload are marked
with a white
icon.
: “Sending”
A green
icon is displayed during upload.
: “Sent”
Images that have been uploaded successfully are
marked with a blue
icon.
Turning the Camera Off
“Send” marking will be saved if the camera is turned off or Off is selected for Wireless transmitter > Wireless LAN system while transmission is in progress. Transmission of images
marked with a “send” icon will resume when the camera is turned on, the shutter-release button
is pressed halfway, or On is selected for Wireless transmitter > Wireless LAN system.
Removing the “Send,” “Sending,” and “Sent” Icons
“Send,” “sending,” and “sent” icons can be removed from all images by selecting Yes for Wireless transmitter > Settings > Deselect all? ( 47).
