Review: Excellent implementation of wireless for the D4 - I'm thrilled with this wireless link. It is small and unobtrusive. I have used it with an iPad and an iPhone for remote camera control. It's by far the best remote you can use, since you can preview the image on-screen. I have also used it to download photos to my computer. It's not as fast as a hard-wired connection or card reader, but is still quite good. It's also a great way to review your shooting work in the field on a larger screen. I find it difficult to critically judge a photo on the 3" screen on the D4, but I can look at the photos on my iPad to get immediate feedback if I need to make adjustments. I've also used it to preview photos for shooting subjects when doing portrait work. Again - the real time feedback allows you to make technical adjustments, and your subject can adjust their actions also. The web-based interface is pretty good. It's not perfect, but is reasonably logical. I've set it up with two profiles - one using my general network and router, and another for a field ad-hoc profile that is perfect for remote control applications. I found the setup to be fairly straightforward, but I am a techno-weenie and used to setting up networks. If you're not used to doing this, the manual is ok but not great. A "simple setup" guide would be good. This is small enough that I tend to leave it on the camera almost all of the time. A few improvements: (1) I wish it had a small hardware on/off switch. I try to turn it off from the menus when not using it, but often forget. Luckily the D4 battery is pretty tolerant of the relatively low power draw of this device. (2) It is just ever-so-slightly too big to comfortably fit a USB cable into the adjacent socket. If I am going to plug in the camera, I need to take this off to not worry about forcing the socket. (3) The rubber socket cover flops around when I have this attached. I expect I will end up ripping it off accidentally some time. Review: Nikon should consider to make this WT to be compatible ... - Nikon should consider to make this WT to be compatible with every NIKON D-SLR cameras. Otherwise, they will be the biggest looser in this digital era in long-term. ## Features - Nikon WT-5A Wireless Transmitter ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B006UPCGTC | | Additional Features | Wireless | | Battery Type | Rechargeable Li-ion Battery | | Best Sellers Rank | #900 in Camera & Camcorder Remote Controls | | Brand | Nikon | | Button Quantity | 5 | | Color | Black | | Compatible Devices | Personal Computer, Server | | Connectivity Technology | Wi-Fi, Ethernet | | Controller Type | Button Control | | Customer Reviews | 3.5 out of 5 stars 15 Reviews | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00018208270460 | | Item Weight | 0.47 Pounds | | Manufacturer | Nikon | | Max Number of Supported Devices | 1 | | Maximum Number of Supported Devices | 1 | | Maximum Range | 180 Meters | | Mfr Part Number | 27046 | | Model Name | WT-5A Wireless Transmitter | | Model Number | 27046 | | Smart Home Compatibility | Not Smart Home Compatible | | Special Feature | Wireless | | UPC | 018208270460 | | Unit Count | 1.0 Count | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Nikon - **Special Feature:** Wireless - **Color:** Black - **Max Number of Supported Devices:** 1 - **Compatible Devices:** Personal Computer, Server ## Images ![WT-5A Wireless Transmitter - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/51QqMgX9+OL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Excellent implementation of wireless for the D4 *by P***Y on November 14, 2012* I'm thrilled with this wireless link.

Otherwise, they will be the biggest looser in this digital era in long-term. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Does its job well. *by C***S on July 28, 2015* I've bought a few of these now for multiple D4 and D4s cameras and they've all held up incredibly well. I was a bit surprised since some of our photographers bump and jostle their cameras a good bit while traveling but we haven't had a single issue in these breaking or even really scratching too much. The setup of these can be a bit of a pain if you aren't at least a little knowledgeable in network settings (IP Address, DNS, etc.). Other than that they are great to use. ## Frequently Bought Together - Nikon WT-5A Wireless Transmitter - Nikon EN-EL15c Rechargeable Li-ion Battery for Compatible DSLR and Mirrorless Cameras (Genuine Accessory) - Nikon NIKKOR Z 24-70mm f/2.8 S | Professional large aperture mid-range zoom lens for Z series mirrorless cameras | Nikon USA Model --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.ie/products/15427195-wt-5a-wireless-transmitter](https://www.desertcart.ie/products/15427195-wt-5a-wireless-transmitter) --- *Product available on Desertcart Ireland* *Store origin: IE* *Last updated: 2026-06-23*
