Can the WiFi be used with a cell phone as a remote control for taking pictures?

Yes you can. I haven't tried it myself. The wifi picture system works great. At the time I bought it, it only worked for Iphone and IPads.

Yes you can, I used a standard tripod for any camera. No the wireless does not interfere with your WI-fi!hank You!

The remote receives WIFI signal and then records on standard SD cards......it has no hardware or ports to send out information. You could put in an SD card with a cable on ( available from Amazon ) to get the pictures transferred out of the unit via the cable to an SD card on some type of hardware / box etc. that would then send it out.......seems like a lot of work / hardware for what a trailcam already set up with cell capabilitis

Steve ... You need to have both the Smartphone and camera on the same WiFi. If you get out of range with your phone it might not work as you asked. I have had reception as far as 30-40 feet at times.

The camera itself does not bring WIFI, however, there is an adapter called Nikon WU-1a Wireless Mobile Adapter for Nikon Digital SLRs, the adapter is very good and works well, so far I have not had problems.

It's an infrared remote - has nothing to do with WiFi. You point it at the camera, press the button, and it either works or it doesn't. The camera has to be set for remote control mode. Even then, this model seems to arrive broken a fair percentage of the time, and won't work no matter what you do.

The camera connects to the via it's own WiFi signal. So the phone/camera communicate independently of other wifi signals.

No, the app does not allow you to control your camera. It's just for transferring pictures from the camera to your phone.

Yes. And there are smart phone apps that allow you to use your phone as a remote.

Hi James, yes, you can control the camera using your smartphone using the app Smart Remote Embedded. Thanks_Mitch

Though I have not tried that, I don't see why not? There are several WI-FI based and hard wired single camera systems that do exactly what you want and are very inexpensive.

Absolutely. If you can get wifi (like what you have at home with a wifi router, or at a coffee shop) just fine. In fact that's how I get photos off it -- I installed the OneDrive app, so after I take photos, as soon as it connects to my wifi, I can see the photos at onedrive.comI also installed the Skype app, so I can voice chat with my friends on this phone.

Both answers are no. GPS only marks where the picture is taken and WiFi is to downloas pictures

Yes and no. It can work completely independently from your phone, as there is a built-in microSD slot to save your photos, a dedicated zoom rocker and a shutter button; you just won't have your LCD to preview the photos. If you want to preview or frame your photos with your phone's screen, however, it will always need to be connected via wifi.

No WIFI. You need to buy a SIM card from AT&T;, T-Mobile or other GSM provider. (No data required, just un-limited texting) You cannot call this camera, but you can send a text message and it will respond with an instant picture. The camera can also be programmed to automatically send you a picture every time motion is detected.
