Your smart device as remote monitor and remote controller
The benefit of Wi-Fi® connection doesn't stop with viewing images: it can also help you capture them.

It's perfect for taking group photo.

Create track logs
With the D5300, you can create track logs with the location information. The camera's location data unit can record your latitude, longitude, altitude and time (UTC: Coordinated Universal Time) onto an SD card (Duration selectable: 6 h, 12 h, 24 h; Interval selectable: 15 s, 30 s, 60 s.). This function can work even when the camera is turned off. All this location data can be imported into ViewNX 2 and the map view on NIKON IMAGE SPACE.
A-GPS (Assisted GPS) support
Using assisted GPS (A-GPS or aGPS) files reduces the time needed for the built-in location data unit to determine the current position. Before using the GPS function, it is recommended to download the latest data to a SD-card, then update the D5300's A-GPS data.
