The RICOH G900SE supports MIFARE®, FeliCa, and ISO1443 TypeA/B NFC cards, letting users unlock the camera simply by tapping it with a card. Card data can be linked to camera memos so that the camera can, for example, retrieve the user’s name from a previously-prepared list and record it when tapped with a company ID card *.
＊ Requires the supplied SR-20 software.
If the camera is connected to a computer running IMAGE Transmitter 2* software (available separately), you can adjust settings (including zoom, exposure, and ISO sensitivity) and take pictures, all while the view through the camera lens is displayed in the computer monitor. The pictures can be saved to any folder on your computer.
Smartphones and tablets running the G900SE-compatible version of Image Sync will be able to perform a variety of tasks, including controlling the camera and taking and viewing pictures remotely and downloading images from the camera and uploading them to social media.
