Fluorescent or LED lighting may cause camera misoperation by 
triggering the shutter inadvertently. Try to keep the camera away from 
such light sources.
 
If you point a remote controller for a TV set toward the camera and 
operate it, it may cause camera misoperation by triggering the shutter 
inadvertently.
 
If flash light is emitted from a flash on another camera around this 
camera, it may cause camera malfunction by triggering the shutter 
inadvertently. Do not expose the remote control sensor to flash light from 
a flash on another camera.
 
You can also use Remote Controller RC-1 and RC-5.
 
Remote control shooting is also possible with devices such as an EX-
series Speedlite equipped with a remote-release function (sold 
separately).
