How it works

Connect

Link your compatible Nikon camera and smartphone to create a fast, streamlined workflow.

Capture

Images can be transferred to your phone automatically as you shoot or manually after the fact.

Prepare

Edit your images, add IPTC data, voice memos and more, right from your mobile device.

Deliver

Send photos and videos to editors, clients or cloud services over the phone's 4G/5G cellular connection.

Built for fast-moving workflows.

Effortlessly automatic.

When you need to stay focused on the moment, NX MobileAir can automatically import your images, straighten them, attach IPTC metadata and upload them to an FTP server or cloud service—all in the background while you shoot.

Find images faster.

Deep-learning filters let you sort and filter imported images by subject types (subject detection), shooting conditions and even whether or not a person is visible in the shot.1

Not only for still photographers.

Streamline your video workflow by manually or automatically uploading recorded video files to Frame.io for real-time cloud collaboration.

Edit, prepare and upload in the moment.
