I\’m a pro photog and have owned Nikons since 1985. I had a little problem at one point. I originally set it up using the auto-assign to link it to my 17\” Mac G4 Powerbook. Worked great. Then a couple weeks later I noticed an update available for the WT-3a software, so I d/l\’d it and loaded it (just because I like to be up-to-date and I wanted to add a couple more configurations I needed to use).All of a sudden I couldn\’t get it to connect. First I want to say that I have NEVER had better tech support than what I got from Nikon – and it\’s 24/7! They rock. Anyway, to make a long story short, after dumping the old config and setting it up with manually assigned IP addresses it has worked flawlessly ever since. Tip: To do it manually, just pick any two IP\’s within the same range; save an Airport peer-to-peer (computer-to-computer – whatever you want to call it); name them the same; budda bing.Side note: I shoot in Raw+Basic L-jpg (D200) and I found the time-to-display solely using Camera Control Pro a little slow (5 to 10 secs) (BTW, I use it for shooting product both in my studio and on-location – great client impresser!). I find that setting CCP up to send it to PictureProject for display is much faster; it sends the jpeg first so you get a view in under 3 seconds. Also, be sure and remove the CF card or what happens is it writes to the card BEFORE sending it wirelessly to your computer, thus increasing your wait time. Remove the card and that interim step is eliminated.Yeah, a bit overpriced but a great device! Don\’t leave it on the camera when you\’re not using it. The exposed USB is vulnerable to damage. If you like the bigger feel in your hand, as I do, buy the MB-200 battery pak for field shooting; it\’s worth it for the extra battery life anyway. It uses up one battery before moving to the second – I carry a third and change it out when the first battery goes or gets low.Cheers and remember, it\’s the Light that\’s magic! Work The Light baby! An hour after sunrise it\’s pretty much over until and hour before sunset!

Could never get this to interface properly with my Mac laptop or Imac. The tech support at Nikon really put in a tremendous effor tto get it right but to no avail. I would have to say that perhaps because I\’m using OS 10.4.10 the Nikon software wasn\’t compatable. Other than the unit being way overpriced, if it worked I would have kept it. Nikon software with Mac OS\’s seem to always have issues.
