BLUETOOTH wireless technology Bluetooth communication provides reliable remote control even in bright sunlight or when there are obstacles between the commander and camera. Bidirectional communication allows additional functionality that would not be available with a transmit-only device, such as status indication right on the remote. Professional reliability The RMT-P1BT provides the type of reliable operation that is essential in professional working environments, with solid Bluetooth connectivity and positive, responsive button control. Because communication is wireless rather than optical, full reliability and response are available even in situations where the line of sight is obscured. Clear visual feedback A high-visibility indicator LED flashes or lights continuously to show shutter, movie recording, and AF status. This is an obvious advantage in situations where the operator does not have direct access to the camera being controlled. Ideal for challenging environments The RMT-P1BT works with the camera’s built-in Bluetooth receiver, so no wired connection or add-on receiver is required. Camera connector covers can remain closed for maximum protection against dust and moisture2, adding to high overall system reliability. Precise control for efficient shooting Precise button operation with clear tactile feedback combines with a refined ergonomic design to provide sure, responsive control. The commander itself is designed to be easy to hold and operate, contributing to smooth, error-free operation. Comprehensive control Essential camera controls are provided: focus buttons for precise control of even subtle focus changes, a lock switch that prevents accidental operation during transport, movie recording start/stop, and power/digital zoom. There are also two custom buttons that mirror the functions of the C1 and AF-ON buttons on the camera body.
