Selects images and transfers them to a smartphone. ([This Image]/[All Images in This Group]/[All with this date]/[Add filter condition]/[Manual selection])
  • The options displayed may differ depending on the View Mode selected on the camera.
  • If you select [Manual selection], select the desired images using the center of the control wheel, then press MENU → [Enter].
Size of Sending Image:
Selects the file size for images to be transferred to the smartphone. The original-sized JPEG/HEIF file or a 2M-equivalent JPEG/HEIF file can be transferred. ([Original]/[2M])
RAW+J/H Send Target:
Selects the file type for images to be transferred to a smartphone when the images are shot with [File Format] set to [RAW & JPEG] or [RAW & HEIF]. ([JPEG & HEIF]/[RAW]/[RAW+J & RAW+H])
Sending Target:
Sets whether to transfer the low-bit-rate proxy movie or the high-bit-rate original movie when transferring a movie to a smartphone. ([Proxy Only]/[Original Only]/[Proxy & Original])
When you select [Proxy Only], movies can be transferred faster than when transferring the original movies.
Movie with Shot Mark:

To filter the images to be transferred (Add filter condition)

Images to be transferred can be filtered by the following conditions:

  • Target Group: [This Date]/[This Media]
  • Still Images/Movies: [All]/[Only Still Images]/[Only Movies]
  • Target Img (Rating): []-[], []
  • Target Movie (): [All]/[Only Shot Mark Mov.]
  • Target Img (Protect): [All]/[Only Protected Img.]

  • Transfer Status *: [All]/[Only Non-transfer]

    *Images transferred by selecting them on the smartphone are treated as not yet transferred.

    *When [Movie with Shot Mark] is set to an item other than [Don't Cut], even if you have already transferred a clip by using a Shot Mark and then set another Shot Mark to the movie, all of the Shot Marks will create clips which will be retransferred as not-yet transferred images.


To add a Shot Mark to a movie

If you add a Shot Mark to a movie, you can use it as a mark for selecting, transferring, or editing the movie. Assign [Add Shot Mark1]/[Add Shot Mark2] to the desired key in [Custom Key Setting] and press the custom key while recording a movie.

  • The function for adding a Shot Mark during playback can only be assigned to the focus hold button on the lens. (Some lenses do not have a focus hold button.)
