Supported Cameras

This guide is for users of Z 9, D6, and D5 cameras. Before it can be used with the NX Field System, your camera will need a fee-for-service firmware update from a Nikon-authorized service representative.

Wireless Connections

Although the NX Field System can connect to wireless networks via a WT‑5 or WT‑6 wireless transmitter or the Z 9’s built-in wireless LAN, Ethernet networks are a better choice as they ensure reliable remote camera control and FTP upload unaffected by variations in signal strength. The instructions in this guide assume an Ethernet connection.
