Caution

Consider using power over USB or a household power outlet accessory (sold separately) when using the camera over extended periods.
The remaining battery level may decline when power is supplied to the camera. To avoid running out of battery power, use a fully charged battery.
Video and audio may be noisy during streaming, depending on the communication environment. Test streaming in advance and check the video and audio quality.
Try the following if video and audio is noisy or skips. These steps may improve the quality.
- Bring the camera and access point (wireless router, tethering smartphone, etc.) closer together, change their relative positions, and keep the space between them free of people and objects.
- Indoors, set up the access point and camera in the same room.
- Set up away from devices that use the 2.4 GHz band, such as microwave ovens or cordless phones.
If noise from an external microphone is distracting, try placing the microphone on the side of the camera with the external microphone IN terminal as far from the camera as possible.
The camera will become warmer during streaming. Use the stand or a tripod, or take other measures to avoid handheld recording. Once the camera becomes hot, [] appears on the screen as a warning.
No image is recorded to the card during streaming (but a card must be in the camera).
