1. Will the "Nikon WT-5A" wireless transmitter work with D5? and, 2. Is the "Camranger 2" a better option for wirelessly transmitting images from D5 to pc/tablet/ipad?
Asked by: Maxim
Yes this product can work with the Nikon D5, since they both use the 10 pin connection. This product comparable to the CamRanger system in that it can wireless transfer images via mobile device or computer.

question

Does this adapter come with Nikon Camera Control Pro 2 software? If not, how does one connect the camera to their PC/MAC?
Asked by: Anonymous
The WT-5A Wireless Transmitter does not come with Nikon Camera Control Pro 2 software. This adapter connects camera to computer by using the wireless transmitter utility, which must be installed on the computer that is being used to communicate with the camera, to an existing wireless network.

question

Can WT-5A be used on a D3S? And D800?
Asked by: Anonymous
To use the WT-5A with the D800, you would also need the Nikon UT-1 (B&H # NIUT1). Unfortunately, this transmitter cannot be used with the Nikon D3S. For the D3S, you could use the Nikon WT-4A (B&H # NIWT4A).

question

With a fast laptop at say 10' distance, can someone measure and let me know how long it takes to transfer a single raw file? What about the time to transfer say 5 raw images shot in quick succession? Thanks
Asked by: T. O.
for my experience, I felt it's not so reliable. Sometimes the signal dropped, and sometimes the session ends without a reason. It is a bit more reliable to connect through wifi router than ad hoc mode. The speed for raw files is not so optimal if you want to see it in almost real time. It would take about 2 to 5 mins for 5 raw files
