Firmware update for D600 and D800

Posted on by

Support for the AF-S NIKKOR 800mm f/5.6E FL ED VR has been added.
Subject tracking performance in AF-C (continuous-servo autofocus) autofocus mode with framing using the viewfinder has been improved.
Frame output size has been changed from 95% to 100% when movie live view display is changed to "Information off" and an HDMI-compatible device is connected.
An issue that caused the right edges of images to be somewhat white when captured at an Image area setting of DX (24×16) 1.5x with Active D-Lighting set to Off has been resolved.
When the camera's shutter-release button was pressed repeatedly for uninterrupted shooting with the "Record to:" option in Camera Control Pro 2's Storage tab set to "PC+CARD", the camera would stop responding with displaying "Err" in its control panel. This issue has been resolved.
In some very rare cases, colors would change with shooting when white balance was set to a specific color temperature, as with Preset manual or Choose color temp. This issue has been resolved.

D600 firmware – C: 1.01
Freeze the sports action. The key is using a high shutter speed. On compact cameras, use the sports scene mode. On a D-SLR, pick a high shutter speed of 1/500th of a second or above. This will freeze …

So, 126 bucks for those nik filters for CS6, I figured i had better actually have a go at using them

Everyone raves about this silver efex pro BW converter, so i had a crack at that one – really its quite a neat tool for CS6, makes converting images to BW in PS a breeze, basically becomes a one stop shop, you can use it to adjust everything from the type of conversion thru to the shadow and highlight detail and option extras light vignetting etc. Nice stuff +Nik Software. Now all ya gotta do is update the CNX2 versions and I will be happy as a pig in mud 😉

Sounds like a Japanese porn star product.However this is really really good shit for bonding stuff together, solvent free adhesive specified by Nikon in many of their repair manuals.

I have had a troublesome zoom/focus grips on a couple of lens and I have been meaning to get some of this to fix them up for hmm, nearly 12 months now, I guess when the whole grip slipped off i made it a priority.

So if you want something better than the spare wetsuit material repair kit adhesive, this is the stuff, cured by air in a few hours, cleanup up with isopropl alcohol.
