User Reviews

This is the app we have been waiting for . A complete remote solution for our Z8. This gives Nikon a true edge over other brands. I think they could extend this app to other platforms. It would be great if iPhone app start supporting landscape orientation so that we can do screen mirroring to large displays. Also it would be nice to have the camera control screen in iPad in a larger screen area so that we can see the live view and last shot image in a bigger space. Currently it is only there on 25% of screen. But overall it is a fantastic app.

NX field is complex software, targeted primarily at agencies who have techs whose job it is to configure and support the FTP Server (required), local and remote (if you’re adventurous) networks, and coordinate the paid firmware updates with NPS for all cameras to be used with the system. I am a very technologically adept freelancer and set the system up myself, including the setup of gamepads supported in the latest edition, for use at the US 2024 Olympic Trials for Swimming. The system proved very valuable for FTP transmission but needs a way for a photographer with a camera in hand to trigger remotes independently (you can set up a master remote that fires all, but that floods your take) and not via joystick or iPad because you have a camera in your hand. Ideal solution to me after extensive field testing would be making numbers 1-9 on a numpad hot keys for triggering independently each of the 9 possible remotes for system: it’s common for warehouse workers, for example, to be able to use a 10-key (include 0) without looking with high accuracy and speed. I would actually use a 3-key mini pad and strap it to my monopod to fire with my left hand fingers while using my right to hold and fire my camera in hand and never look down. 9 remotes is too much to remember if you’re the only photographer. As an assistant, I think 10-key would be much faster than trying to do the same on the iPad. In short, this has a lot of promise if you can dedicate the time - allow a lot, won’t be something setup in even a week of spare time - and Nikon can make a simple usability update. As stands gets a 5 on basis there’s not a good alternative to system’s existing functionality and does what it says will do if you dot all the i’s and cross all the t’s, have patience during process.
