Completes the D5

Perfect fit for the Nikon 5. The alternative is bulky and cumbersome. This is little more than a small bump on the side. Nikon's instructions leave out obvious answers to questions in setup but these are easily figured out. Hardest part is solved after plugging in and trying it out. On the field, there's cell phone linkage but no wifi. Exactly what was needed for an access point to get sports shots to the people putting up the instant action sites. Confusing documentation takes one star off.

Wish it Worked

I tried connecting my new WT-6A to my new D5 camera and guess what, it does not work properly yet. I am trying to use image transfer mode between the camera and a Mac Book Pro laptop computer. After carefully following the instructions I can get the WT-6A to send a batch of files to the laptop and then it disconnects. I also tried connecting to a Windows 10 PC with the same results. Nikon support has been working on a solution for a week now. I will be surprised if this issue gets solved very quickly. It is not useable at the current time. I am seriously thinking about returning this unit and wait until Nikon actually gets it working to purchase it.

About Nikon WT-6A

Where innovation meets functionality, the WT-6A Wireless Transmitter stands as a testament to Nikon's commitment to high-quality, user-friendly technology. Designed specifically for seamless integration with Nikon D5 cameras, this reliable and durable wireless transmitter leverages the power of Wi-Fi technology to facilitate the transfer and viewing of files.

With the WT-6A, you can take full control of your Nikon D5 camera functions, whether you're transferring images and videos via an existing Wireless LAN network or directly to a computer or smart device. The transmitter supports both FTP and HTTP modes, offering you a variety of options for data transfer.

Experience the thrill of speed with the WT-6A's impressive 130 Mbps transmission rate, eliminating data transfer bottlenecks and ensuring your workflow remains uninterrupted. This wireless transmitter supports the IEEE802.11ac standard, guaranteeing faster transmission speeds over a distance of up to 656 ft. (200m). Additionally, it is compatible with IEEE802.11a/b/g/n standards.

The WT-6A's HTTP Server Mode allows you to remotely operate camera controls, capture images, and download files using the web browser on your computer or smart device. This mode also supports continuous shooting and enables users to wirelessly edit image comments, copyright, or IPTC information stored on the camera.

In PC Mode, you can operate the D5 via the optional Camera Control Pro 2 software. The Image Transfer Mode allows you to transfer images or videos from the camera's media card to a computer, or save photos to a computer as they are taken.

The WT-6A, when paired with the D5, offers a wireless LAN speed that is 1.5x faster than the WT-5, providing a speed of 130 Mbps. The D5 also features an Access Point Mode, which allows the camera to function as a wireless LAN access point, increasing the number of devices you can connect to the camera.

The Synchronize Release Mode enables one master camera to simultaneously release up to ten remote D5/WT-6A combinations using Wi-Fi. This wireless transmitter is compatible with Nikon D5 cameras, making it an essential tool for photographers seeking to enhance their Nikon experience.
