The Bluetooth EasyTag GPS allows for wireless geotagging of photos. It uses a Bluetooth receiver that plugs directly into your Nikon DSLR.

The receiver is powered by the Nikon DSLR and is hard-coded to pair with your EasyTagger for quick pairing whenever turned on. There are three versions of the Bluetooth EasyTag:

  • B1: Pairs with one Bluetooth receiver
  • B2: Pairs with two Bluetooth receivers (can be different cameras: D200 & D90, D5100 and D7000, etc.)
  • B3: Pairs with three Bluetooth receivers (can be different cameras: D300 & D90 & D5000, D3100 & D7000 & D3s, etc.)

NOTE: B1 ships from Canada when stock is available. B2 and B3 ship directly from the manufacturer due to the pairing/programming requirements and vast number of camera combinations possible.

For B2/B3 EasyTags, the main device will first wirelessly search for the B1 receiver, then the B2 receiver, then the B3 receiver if applicable, in ascending order. If it does not find a lower receiver, it will continue and connect to any/all subsequent receivers. All receivers do NOT have to be in use for the EasyTag to function — it will simply skip receivers it cannot find but will take longer to pair since it will first search for lower receivers. To restart the connection/pairing cycle, you must turn off the EasyTag (main device) and turn it back on for it to search for all receivers again. (You cannot subsequently connect a B1 receiver if the EasyTag has already searched for it and not found it and you are currently only using a B2 receiver.)

Connect example for B2: 10-pin and D5100 receivers. It will first search for the 10-pin receiver. If it finds it, it will connect to it. It will then search for the D5100. If it finds it, it will connect to it. If it does not find the 10-pin receiver after 10-15 seconds, it will continue searching and pair with the D5100 receiver.

It is equipped with its own internal battery, capable of 5-7 hours of continuous logging when wireless transmitting via Bluetooth. When directly connected via a data cable, the internal battery is capable of 8-10 hours of continuous logging. It charges in approximately 4 hours using the bundled USB cable.

When the EasyTagger’s battery runs low, if connected to a compatible Nikon DSLR (wired geotagging), it will switch to the camera’s battery to allow for uninterrupted operation (except for the D7000 which cannot power the EasyTag).

The Bluetooth EasyTag has TWO operating modes:

  • Bluetooth (wirelessly): the receiver plugs into your Nikon DSLR. The main unit transmits GPS data wirelessly from within 10 meters. NOTE: In Bluetooth mode, only 10-pin Nikons are capable of simultaneously using a 2.5mm remote shutter release. See below.
  • Wired (when connected with the optional data cable): the EasyTag is directly connected to your Nikon DSLR via a data cable. 2.5mm remote shutter releases can be used.

NOTE: The modes are mutually exclusive. You cannot use the Bluetooth mode as well as the wired mode at the same time. e.g. If you purchase a B1 receiver for a D7000 and a 10-pin cable, you cannot use both at the same time. It is EITHER the Bluetooth mode or the wired mode at any one time.

NOTE: When connected via a data cable, the EasyTagger draws a small current and should be disconnected from the Nikon DSLR if not in use for extended periods of time so as to not drain the DSLR’s battery.

NOTE: The D7000 does NOT power the EasyTag, unlike other Nikon DSLRs such as the D1/D2/D3/D200/D300/D700/D3100/D5000/D5100/D7000/D90/etc. For wired geotagging with the D7000, the EasyTag MUST be charged and will run off its own internal battery. Our engineers are trying to determine if Nikon changed something on the D7000.

Its direct data cable connection is compatible with the Nikon D2/x/Hs/xs, D3/s/x, D90, D200 (no compass heading), D300/s, D700, D3100, D5000, D5100, D7000 and Fuji S5 Pro.

For optional wired geotagging, a direct data cable is required:

  • The 10-pin data cable is required for the D1-, D2-, D3-, D200, D300-, and D700.
  • The 8-pin cable is required for the D90, D3100, D5000, D5100 and D7000.

For the 10-pin Nikons (D1-, D2-, D3-, D200, D300/s, D700), the 10-pin Bluetooth receiver has a 2.5mm remote pass-through allowing remote shutter releases to be used simultaneously while the Bluetooth receiver is plugged in so that no existing functionality is lost. Unfortunately, this functionality is NOT available for the D90, D3100, D5000, D5100 and D7000 Bluetooth receivers. However, if the EasyTag is connected via a direct cable connection, the 2.5mm remote pass-through on the main EasyTag device can be used.
