Introduction to Wi-Fi
119
Before using Wi-Fi functions
Based on the function, the camcorder will wirelessly connect to a Wi-Fi-enabled device, such as a
smartphone, or directly to a Wi-Fi network via an access point (wireless router)*. After selecting the
function you want to use, follow the onscreen directions to connect the camcorder.
* Depending on the manufacturer, the access point may be referred to using a different name, such
as wireless LAN router or wireless network router.
• Make sure the optional WM-V1 Wireless Microphone is not attached to the camcorder. Wi-Fi
functions are not available when the microphone is attached.
About the Wi-Fi antenna
When using the camcorder’s Wi-Fi functions, do not cover
the Wi-Fi antenna with your hand or other object. Covering
it may interfere with wireless signals.
About the camcorder’s Wi-Fi standard
The specifications of the camcorder's Wi-Fi standard are as follows.
Wi-Fi protocol, operating frequency: IEEE 802.11b/g/n-compliant, 2.4 GHz
IEEE 802.11a/n-compliant, 5 GHz*
Maximum data transfer rate: 11 Mbps (IEEE 802.11b)
54 Mbps (IEEE 802.11a/g)*
150 Mbps (IEEE 802.11n)
These are theoretical values and actual data transfer rates may differ.
*
The IEEE 802.11a protocol and 5 GHz operating frequency are not available for this
camcorder.
If the identification plate on the bottom of the camcorder contains "ID0030" and "2.4 GHz only",
then the camcorder can operate in the 2.4 GHz band but not in the 5 GHz band.
