D80

[neil_ewins]

I have seen some use of the D2x recently and really like the wireless facility

on it i could make good use of this for event photography. Does any one know of

a wireless adapter to fit on to the D80? I know there is an adapter for the D200

but i have only just brought the D80

 

Many Thanks

The D80 has a built in wireless controller, per Nikon:

 

"Built-in Speedlight with Nikon i-TTL flash metering and two-group Wireless Commander: Nikon?s acclaimed i-TTL flash control evaluates flash exposure with greater precision to achieve better automatic flash balance and deliver outstanding results with SB-600, SB-800 or SB-R200 Speedlights."

Any of the three listed flash units can be controlled by the wireless controller (commander). "Two group" means you can control two separate groups of glash with the controller. Check your D80 manual perhaps. For flash unit info:

Wireless flash? Or a wireless connection to a computer?

I need a wireless link to the computer to transmit data and not for flash control. i have been shooting in tetherd mode via usb but the wire limits my movement

 

Thanks

OIC, sorry about that.

I'm confused by your last post...you said that you've been shooting tethered to the computer.. Why would you do that? Can't you simply shoot the pictures and upload them to the PC later?

 

Sorry if this is a complete beginner question...
