    Connecting via USB

    You can connect via USB by connecting the camera and a smartphone using a commercially available USB cable. This enables faster and more stable communication than Wi-Fi connection.

    • A USB Type-C® terminal is required on the smartphone. Connect the camera and the smartphone with a single Type-C USB cable without using an adapter.
    • To perform high-speed communication, the camera, smartphone, and USB cable all need to be USB3.2 compliant. Refer to "Supported cameras" for the supported cameras.
