Camera was set to Aperture priority, f/4.5 and ISO 640. Lens was my 70-200mm (i was too lazy to switch to something else) 90mm. Here are those promised bird pictures (i never said they would be good! ). don't re-invent the wheel) i stumbled onto. I was doing some research into the PTP/IP protocol used by the WU-1a (#1 rule in development.
You can control 2 things on the camera, focus and shutter. On an iPad it looks horrible (running in x2 mode). Nikon's Wireless Mobile Utility: It Sucks. I'll do some official range tests this weekend. All the phones i tested had to be moved closer to a door to work (less signal obstruction). The iPads (1,2,3 & mini) are hit or miss from this location. Using a Kindle Fire HD (a device with GREAT wifi reception) i can sit on my couch inside the house and take pictures outside with the camera in the garden (~40 feet with a stucco wall in the way). Range: Not bad at all! It really comes down to the device your using to control the camera. I've only had a few minutes to play with the WU-1a this week but so far i'm impressed. I'll post the results so people know what to expect from their device. I plan on doing some tests to see the range of different devices (iPhone 4 & 5, Galaxy S2 & S3, Nexus 7, Kindle Fire HD 7, iPad 1 & 2 & 3 & Mini). my bird feeders are loaded and i'll try to snap some 'candid' shots today. i have to create my own PTP library using 'wifi' as the transport layer. Microsoft, Google and Apple all have PTP built into their API's but they seem to lack the ability to change the transport layer (they all expect a USB connection). My goal is to create a 3rd party app that will do more then just 'take picture / view picture' A few people have tested this with good results using a D800 (a camera not supposed to be supported by the wifi adapters!) Since you can pull RAW files off your camera with a USB cable you should be able to pull them off with the WiFi Adapter. In theory you can do everything over IP you can with USB, only the transport method has changed. When you connect to the WU-1a with your phone or tablet it uses PTP/IP (Picture Transfer Protocol over IP). You can then pull off all the images (RAW & JPEG) and even control the camera (live view, shutter, apreture.

Picture Transfer Protocol - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia). When you plug your Nikon camera into your computer with a USB cable your computer talks to it using PTP (Picture Transfer Protocol. The only reason you cant do more with the WU-1A is because Nikon is too lazy to create a better mobile application.
This is where my summer 'me' time will be spent. I think this is what your talking about when you say its 'useless' for raw.

From my short test it looks like if you select a RAW image to download to your phone/tablet it gets transferred as JPG. It doesn't matter what format (RAW or JPG) and you can see all SD cards in the camera (if your using a D7100). 'View Photos' lets your browse the saved images on your camera from your phone/tablet. If you don't like those settings you have to walk up to the camera and change the settings. If you have your camera set to RAW f/2.8 1/500 ISO400 then that's the picture your going to get. The only things you can control from your phone/tablet is the focus point (touch the live feed on your phone/tablet to select focus) and shutter (take the picture). 'Take Photos' lets you remotely take a picture from your smart phone/tablet.

Nikons software lets you do two things: 'Take Photos' and 'View Photos'.
$59.ĭoes anybody else use one of these adapters (WU-1a or WU-1b)? What are your thoughts? Gimmick? Tool? Toy? I'll be more likely to replace it after i loose it for $39 vs. I haven't even used it yet but IMHO its about $20 more then its worth.
Even the case is small (about the size of a quarter). Ignore the horrible picture from my phone
