The SnapBridge app can be used for a variety of tasks once the camera 
has been paired with your smart device. For more information on the 
features below, see SnapBridge online help.

Auto Upload
At default settings, JPEG photographs will automatically be uploaded 
to the smart device as they are taken (auto upload is not available with 
movies or with NEF/RAW images, and is automatically suspended 
when the battery level drops to 

H). Before uploading pictures, place 

the smart device close to the camera and launch the SnapBridge app. 
Here are some tips for uploading pictures:
• Disabling auto upload: To disable auto upload, select Off for Send to 

smart device (auto) in the camera setup menu (

• Uploading selected pictures: To upload pictures not previously sent using 

auto upload, press the camera 

P button during playback and select 

pictures using Select to send to smart device/deselect (

0 155), or 

select pictures using the Select to send to smart device option in the 
camera playback menu (

0 189). Note that as long as a constant 

connection is in effect between the camera and smart device, pictures 
will be uploaded automatically even when the camera is off. The 
memory card access lamp (

0 36) will continue to flash while the 

camera is off, but this does not indicate a malfunction. Upload is 
however automatically suspended when the battery level drops to 

H.

• Resizing pictures for upload: Choose an upload size in the SnapBridge 

app. The default is 2 megapixels.

• Embedding photo info: Use the SnapBridge app to choose the 

information you want imprinted on photographs copied to the smart 
device. Comments and copyright information can be entered in 
advance from the camera setup menu. You can also imprint text 
entered in the SnapBridge app.
