bullet02The paired Bluetooth device is registered as a paired device.

bullet02Even if you set up pairing with more than one Bluetooth device, you can only connect to one Bluetooth device at a time.

bullet02When pairing takes some time, canceling the pairing settings on both the Bluetooth device and camera and re-establishing the connection may result in the camera being detected correctly.

bullet02During Bluetooth connection, [icon_bluetooth_s] is displayed in the recording screen.

When the Bluetooth function is enabled, but a connection is not established with the Bluetooth device, [icon_bluetooth_s] appears translucent.

bullet02Up to a total of 16 Bluetooth devices can be paired. If you try to register more than 16 devices, the registration information will be deleted from the oldest first.
