So easy to use! Best purchase ever for my Nikon D7100

So easy to use! Best purchase ever for my Nikon D7100
This little gadget is amazing! Totally transformed how we get photos to out to friends. We take pictures on the go all the time and love our D7100 Nikon. However without wireless, getting pics to the phone to text out was impossible and the pics would sit on the canera forever while we got around to downloading them from the SD card to a PC. This is so immediate, so easy and I just love it! Now when we are out taking pics of kitten adoption days when we volunteeer, we can text the adoption photo to the family right then! Then straight to facebook, Without buying another camera, just for wireless. So far the app is easy and the majority of work is my teenge daughter and see has no problem getting this on her iphone and using right away. She loves the remote feature also. She can snap the shutter from her phone from a few feet away (haven't tested range). The only problem (if its really a problem) was we didn't realize that this tethered to the case, and the little case slides on to the camera strap to keep it in place. So once it's in place the way it's meant to be, it can't get lost, as I misplaced my first one, and bought a second. (I then found the first LOL) this isn't a problem as I have another camera and am so happy to have 2 now, both securely in place!I included pics, because when I was looking around I couldn't find much reference info on size, how it tethered, how it fit etc...Happy wireless photographing!
