Jerry_ Posted September 5, 2012 Share Posted September 5, 2012 <p>Perhaps you can e-mail Nikon in Japan with your situation? But my guess is you are buying, or bought, the *budget* body with the needs of the *premium* D-SLR body. Some things in life just do not go the way one hopes they will....</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ripple_ratt Posted January 22, 2013 Share Posted January 22, 2013 <p>wow,<br> Thanks <a href="/photodb/user?user_id=1159437">Mike Halliwell</a> for posting this and saving me a lot of time trying to figure out why the laptop sees the d3200 but camera control pro 2, Nikon's own product, is not seeing my new d3200. </p> <p>I finally went to try the PC and camera control pro 2 with the d3200 cause the WiFi for $60 is totally useless with the android app. Beta software and just basic proof of concept in operation crap. </p> <p>see my review on Google play. <a href="https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.nikon.wu.wmau&reviewId=bGc6QU9xcFRPSHp6anZDOWtRbEhoWDBOcEh2OUdRM0RpeWJtV0RTT00zMWdrcllaa1oxTE9qRjljRXJZeTNZQ21CbHJRVTRxUzZQWld2NENWQzZTZERE" target="_blank">https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.nikon.wu.wmau</a></p> <p>Also note that it's been 6 months and if they were customer focused they would hire a developer to fix the app. but it seems no one is working on it cause not one update since initial release. not one. Nikon has no intention of making that app any better. </p> <p>so now i am feeling like i got ripped off by Nikon when i bought the d3200. i have to sell it and buy something else cause it just does not do what the rest of the Nikon DSLRs can do.... which is remote control. the android app cant do it at a pro level. sure it passed the test plan n developer got paid and left never to be heard from again. </p> <p>really Nikon? you cant write a driver for the 3200 so it can be used like the rest... android only? what are you nuts? not one single review on that either anywhere...</p> <p>I have had enough. i think i gonna bite the bullet and dump Nikon. </p> <p>ARRRRGGGGG!!! this new camera is just getting worse and worse, anyone selling Cannon gear? </p> <p>Ripple Ratt<br> <a href="http://www.phatratt.com/" target="_blank">Phat Ratt Photography</a> of <a href="http://co.phatratt.com/Motorcycles" target="_blank">Colorado</a> </p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mike_halliwell Posted January 23, 2013 Author Share Posted January 23, 2013 <p>I'm with you there! Not sure what to do with my D3200 now. I might sell it to a friend..:-)</p> <p>The newly released D5200 has a same size chip AND a fold out screen....and CCP2 sees it..etc etc. In the meantime I got a D5100 at a good price....:-)</p> <p>I've not tried to see whether a Mac can see it? <em><strong>Apparently</strong></em> Aperture 3 can..!</p> <p>http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4176</p> <p><em><strong>ARRRRGGGGG!!!</strong></em> Being a PC based Nikon user isn't a bed of roses sometimes!</p> <p> </p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ivelin_iliev Posted February 8, 2013 Share Posted February 8, 2013 <p>That's my first camera and I'm already quite disappointed of how much stuff is missing there.. I found this http://www.digicamcontrol.com/ which looks similar although I haven't used Camera Control before, so I can't really tell the difference. It's free and working :)</p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ivelin_iliev Posted February 14, 2013 Share Posted February 14, 2013 <p>Mike, it is working on D3200. I did some exposure bracketing and time lapse and those are working just fine. </p> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
