Compact and energy-efficient, it supports remote live view and shutter control via the dedicated app, enhancing your photography workflow with seamless connectivity and minimal battery impact. ## Description The WU-1a is compatible with the following Nikon cameras: D7100, D5200, D3200, D3300, Df, COOLPIX A, COOLPIX P330, COOLPIX P520, COOLPIX P530, COOLPIX P7800, Nikon 1 S2 Review: Exactly what I wanted - I ordered this WU-1a to use with my shiny new D3300. I'm a total novice to DSLRs, but I wanted to be able to snap a photo and then be able to view and edit it on my iPad, since my laptop is currently thrashed. iPads notoriously have no ports for memory cards, hence the need for the wireless adapter. -How big is it? It's a little bit bigger than my thumbnail at the base. It's really not very big. Since it's so small, it doesn't really add weight or bulk to the camera, which is nice. -Does it drain my battery? I don't leave mine attached for extended periods of time. Instead, it comes with a nifty little carrying case that attaches right to your camera strap. I plug it in when I want to transmit photos, and unplug it otherwise. Since it's not constantly transmitting, the battery drain is minimal enough that I don't notice a difference between regular use and use with the wireless unit. -Is it easy to install? Yep! The instruction manual is ginormous. Most likely because it's written in several languages. I didn't even unfold it all the way (oops!) and instead, I plugged it in and looked at the instructions for attaching the included carrying case to the camera strap. After that, it was just installing the app and then connecting. If I had to pick a step that was the hardest, I would say connecting was it. It was still a snap, since I followed the advice of previous reviewers and put my phone/iPad in airplane mode and then enabled only the device's wifi network. -Does it work? YES! Within 5 minutes of the mailman handing me my desertcart package, I had wirelessly transferred 120 photos to my iPad. It's that easy. I've seen other reviewers complain about long transfer times, but I was able to transfer my photos in seconds. 50 photos takes about 15 seconds. As far as I was able to tell (novice, remember?) the photos didn't lose any of their sharpness or contrast, and the file sizes were the same as they were on the camera. -Would you recommend this? Absolutely. It works exactly how I want it to, and reliably. I got exactly what I was looking for, and would recommend this product to a friend. Review: Useful - Update 6/24/12 WMAU review After waiting for 2 months on desertcart I finally got the WU wireless module from somewhere else by paying an extra $25 and cancelling my order on desertcart. The module is pretty useful. Super small and comes with a cool case that attaches to your camera strap. Connects via WiFi to your phone (Android for now) and the associated wmau App (Wireless Mobile Adapter Utility) gives you the following 4 functionalities once you are connected Remotely: 1. Use the Camera to take pictures that will be downloaded and to your phone instantly. Take about a sec per pic. 2. Use the phone to take the pictures. can see the camera view live. Only provides the shutter options but it could come handy for taking family pictures on a tripod. 2. Downloads the pictures (temporary memory) for viewing on your phone in seconds. I had about 200 pics that were downloaded in about three seconds. From there you view and select the files that you actually want to download to your phone. Every time you close the app the temp pics will go away. You can select a picture or multiple pictures to download permanently to your phone. 4. You can "share" the downloaded photos. The share option gives you all the usual suspects, Facebook, Gmail, etc. I like the last two option as I am betting all my techie friends on Facebook are wondering how I posted a family picture via mobile with this quality! :) Little secret iphone10! Also, overall now that I have taken over 2000 pictures and 20 videos with D3200 all I can say to convey the quality of pictures, ease of use, speed, and other utilities made available in this camera are WOW and Love it! Money well spent and kudos to Nikon. ## Features - Automatically transfer images to your smartphone or tablet for instant sharing after you download the "Wireless Mobile Adapter Utility" app - Use your smartphone or tablet to see from the camera's perspective and trigger the shutter release - Connects via Wi-Fi Protected Setup (WPS) - The WU-1a is compatible with the following Nikon cameras: D7100, D5200, D3200, D3300, Df, COOLPIX A, COOLPIX P330, COOLPIX P520, COOLPIX P530, COOLPIX P7800, Nikon 1 S2 - Specifications and Compatibility: OS: Smartphones, Tablets:Android version 2.3 or later (smartphone), Android version 3.0 or later (tablet). iPhone and iPad: iOS version 6.0 or later. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | ASIN | B007VGGIB6 | | Best Sellers Rank | #274 in Camera Power Adapters | | Brand | Nikon | | Color | black | | Compatible Devices | Smartphone, Tablet | | Connector Type | wireless | | Current Rating | 1 A | | Customer Reviews | 4.1 out of 5 stars 5,333 Reviews | | Global Trade Identification Number | 00018208270811 | | Input Voltage | 24 volts | | Item Dimensions | 3.54 x 3.93 x 1.96 inches | | Item Weight | 0.04 kg | | Item dimensions L x W x H | 3.54 x 3.93 x 1.96 inches | | Manufacturer | Nikon | | Mfr Part Number | 27081 | | Model Number | WU-1a | | Nominal Power | 24 watts | | Number of Items | 1 | | Number of Ports | 1 | | Package Quantity | 1 | | Power Plug Type | No Plug | | UPC | 018208270811 | | Unit Count | 1 Count | | Warranty Type | Limited | ## Product Details - **Brand:** Nikon - **Color:** black - **Compatible Devices:** Smartphone, Tablet - **Connector Type:** wireless - **Item dimensions L x W x H:** 0.7 x 0.8 x 0.4 inches ## Images ![Nikon WU-1a Wireless Mobile Adapter 27081 for Nikon Df, Nikon 1 S2, COOLPIX P530, D3300, COOLPIX P7800, COOLPIX P330, COOLPIX A, D7100, COOLPIX P520, D5200, D3200 Base, Black - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61w6vewuSSL.jpg) ![Nikon WU-1a Wireless Mobile Adapter 27081 for Nikon Df, Nikon 1 S2, COOLPIX P530, D3300, COOLPIX P7800, COOLPIX P330, COOLPIX A, D7100, COOLPIX P520, D5200, D3200 Base, Black - Image 2](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/518cqUnyqIL.jpg) ![Nikon WU-1a Wireless Mobile Adapter 27081 for Nikon Df, Nikon 1 S2, COOLPIX P530, D3300, COOLPIX P7800, COOLPIX P330, COOLPIX A, D7100, COOLPIX P520, D5200, D3200 Base, Black - Image 3](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/31tgdHcnOPL.jpg) ## Questions & Answers **Q: Will this work on other than D3200 cameras?** A: Yes, there are settings in the camera you must change.I don't offhand recall what they are but you'll find them online.It will work with your 5200 It worked with mine. **Q: Does WU-1a work with Nikon D90** A: does Nikon ML-L3 Wireless Remote Control work with the D90 **Q: does it work with nikon d5100? :)** A: No, it does not work with the 5100.

It's not perfect technology, but it solves my problem of letting me use a DSLR to take good quality photos and post them to social media without having to download the pictures to the computer. I am very happy to be taking that step out of the process as it slowed me down a lot. I no longer have to sacrifice quality for speed of sharing, and the grandparents reap the benefits. I set up my shots, take my pictures while my son is in a good mood, and then I can scroll through the pictures on my iPhone 5 while I am feeding him later, processing them if I want and uploading them. A few notes: the widget does not transfer videos, but it DOES transfer RAW files. Not that I have an app that will adjust RAW settings on my iPhone, but I like to have the RAW files for posterity and I could save space on my camera by not using the RAW+FINE setting, if I wanted. The widget offers multiple options for transfer of an image, but only if you download one image at a time. And the widget also prefers to connect on wi-fi while my phone is in Airplane mode; otherwise, it drops the connection a lot. The app is also a little clunky, but oh well. I would prefer if I could download multiple full-quality images to my phone at the same time, rather than individually, but they do take up a lot of storage. I generally use Camera+ for processing the images on my phone, but I'm not 100% thrilled with the results. Often I end up just uploading the image SOOC. I used to process every single image so this is a big change for me, but I'm glad to get the images up quickly because babies don't give you a lot of time to process images. Nope, it's not perfect technology, but this is much better than my old workflow and I'm quite pleased with it! Would definitely buy again! ## Frequently Bought Together - Nikon WU-1a Wireless Mobile Adapter for Nikon Digital SLRs - BESTON 2-Pack EN-EL14 / EN-EL14a Battery Packs and Rapid USB Charger for Nikon D3100 D3200 D3300 D3400 D3500 D5100 D5200 D5300 D5500 D5600 DF Coolpix P7000 P7100 P7700 P7800 Cameras - USB Cable Photo Transfer Charger Cord UC-E6 for Nikon D3300 D750 D5300 D7200 D3200, Coolpix B500, Select Coolpix & DSLR (Please See Product Pictures & Complete List of Compatible Nikon Models Below) --- ## 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.is/products/996051-nikon-wu-1a-wireless-mobile-adapter-27081-for-nikon-df](https://www.desertcart.is/products/996051-nikon-wu-1a-wireless-mobile-adapter-27081-for-nikon-df) --- *Product available on Desertcart Iceland* *Store origin: IS* *Last updated: 2026-09-27*
