Before you start

Open Photomitra on your phone or laptop and go to QR & cameras: it shows your Server, Port and your team's camera login. Keep it open while you set up the camera.

Nikon Z6 III FTP setup, step by step

  1. 1

    Create a Wi-Fi profile

    Network menu → Connect to FTP server → Network settings → Create profile → Connection wizard → name it → Search for Wi-Fi network → pick the venue Wi-Fi or your phone hotspot → enter its password → Obtain automatically.

  2. 2

    Enter the server

    When the camera asks for the server type, choose FTP, then enter the Server shown in Photomitra (QR & cameras) as the address.

  3. 3

    Enter your camera login

    Choose Enter user ID and type your team's camera login (user ID and password). Destination folder: Home folder (Photomitra tells two Z6 IIIs apart by their serial number).

  4. 4

    Check the port and PASV mode

    In Network settings, highlight the profile and press the multi selector right → FTP. Server type: the Port must match Photomitra. PASV mode: ON.

  5. 5

    Send small JPEGs

    Photo shooting menu → Image quality: RAW + JPEG normal, and Image size settings: Small (about 2.1 MB per JPEG; the RAW stays full size). Then Connect to FTP server → Options → Upload RAW + JPEG as: JPEG only.

  6. 6

    Turn on automatic sending

    Connect to FTP server → Options → Auto upload: ON, and Keep connection: ON. The profile name turns green once connected. Videos are not sent automatically.

Nikon Z6 III setup: questions

Do I need a WT-7 or other accessory?

No. The Z6 III has Wi-Fi and FTP built in. Only a wired Ethernet connection needs a USB-to-Ethernet adapter.

The profile name isn't green.

It isn't connected. Check the address, port and password, and that PASV mode is ON. A wrong password shows up as an alert in your Photomitra dashboard.

Can I keep shooting while it sends?

Yes. Each photo is sent after it is saved to the card, so keep a card in the camera.
