of the features in the "Specifications" section of the Camera User Guide .
• Ensure that you turn off your computer's Sleep feature before you begin remote
shooting. The results cannot be guaranteed if the computer enters Sleep mode
while remote shooting.
• Except for the shutter button, the camera's buttons and switches, including
the zoom, cannot be manually operated while the camera is being remotely
controlled.
