Guys, I recently purchased a D3200 from CL and although it hasn't arrived on my doorstep as yet the thought of operating my new camera remotely or wirelessly has me intrigued.

I'm hoping you gents can recommend an android device that will be compatible with the D3200 to accomplish this without any headaches as I haven't crawled out of my cave into the world of technology as yet.

Be gentle with me. laugh

Let the games begin.

This, but hooked up to an android device/ tablet.

Can even be hard wired to the camera aswell.

I'm walking in very unfamiliar territory.

There's you tubes vids on the subject but was hoping for some firsthand input from the good folks here.

All the apps on Google Play will work on Android. I have the Galaxy 5 and I use it to remotely view/release my Sony and Canon cameras. I don't have the wireless attachment for the Nikon but have some friends who have used it without any problems.

If you would like to post images quickly after taking them and having them transfer to your phone (you can select one or more, I recommend selecting one at a time), I would recommend also downloading an editing software for the Android as well. My favorite is Snapseed, which is free and easy but gives great results.


Great photography is not about being in the right place at the right time, it is about putting yourself in the right place at the right time.

No cell service here so a smartphone is out and the small screen is not what I'm interested in. I should have stated that I'm looking for larger android tablet to wirelessly view/operate my camera.

Suggestions ?

I have the 3300 with the wireless device from Nikon.
My wife has a new Samsung Galaxy 10 that works great with my Nikon. Have played with it a limited amount of time, but it is quite intriguing to me and look forward to learning more about the camera and tablet. If you don't want a 10" screen, you can get a 7" also.

How remote does one want to be? 10 ft, 50 ft, 100 yds? Got Cookie some Canon gear that works to 100 yds, but she's not exercised it yet.
